A stone cross mounted at the head of stone steps leading from Hickleton Road. The base forms a barrier to the head of the steps. Christ with child on one side and crucifix on the other side at the head of the cross. This is one of four crosses erected in the churchyard by The Second Viscount Halifax, about 1910. His intention was to promote catholic principles into the Church of England. Although four crosses are listed only three can be seen. There are the remains in the form of a stone stump at the entrance to the churchyard, west top corner, which may have been cross four.

Charles Wood, 2nd Viscount-
