This shows the surviving base of the ancient Knightlow Cross on its mound. It is adjacent to the modern A45 running east/west on the other side of the tall hedge on the left, close to where the old north/south track Freeboard Lane crosses it. About 3/4 mile to the east is the roman north/south Fosse Way. More about it here http://www.ourwarwickshire.org.uk/content/topics/traditions-and-customs/wroth-silver-ceremony-knightlow-cross
