In the churchyard is a Gothic pre-Reformation cross. It consists of an oblong shaft standing on a plain pedestal with a sculptured head. On the north and south sides of the head are single niches, and on the east and west sides are double niches. They all have ogee canopies and contain images which are weathered. The cross is listed Grade II* and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
