Roundabout at Alkerton, Eastington

Image: © Phil Champion Taken: 20 Aug 2005

At the junction of Alkerton Road and Bath Road. I don't know anything about the stone cross, but it clearly pre-dates the roundabout. The 'King's Head' on the south side of the junction is a late-18th or early-19th-century brick house with a cornice and a parapet, a doorway with a fan-light, and a porch with Doric columns; it was a public house by 1834.
