Upton Cross, now a private residence, was once an Inn. It stands at the meeting of the roads leading up to Upton Heath, the Bache and Newton. The age of the house is unknown and the original house had additions made prior to 1862. From its style it would appear to be late eighteenth century. Mention has been made of cockfighting taking place there about 1790.
