Unfortunately the top of the cross is damaged. It appears to have been a 'St Andrew's' cross in a circle. The road on the left was constructed sometime after 1929 to bypass the narrow road that passes the 'White Swan'. There is a well or trough in a niche at the foot of the retaining wall that supports the new road.
