A stump of a cross in the library

This stone relic is right outside the library, but what is it? A short distance down the road is the site of the old Don John's Cross, which is an old preaching cross of unknown age that was placed on the main Bristol road beside a water fountain and trough. The area is now built over but this is believed to be the remains of that cross.
