The Cloisters, Appleby

This is the name of a screen built in 1811, designed by R Smirke. It has a two-storey pavilion with corbelled parapet at each end, and seven pointed arches between them, with the arms of Appleby over the central arch. Grade II* listed. It partly hides the church. The Low Cross is identical to the High Cross, of which it is supposed to be an 18C copy. Like the High Cross it is Grade II* listed.
