The village preaching cross dates back to 1546-7 and used to stand a short distance from its present place in front of the church. In 1928 the village placed a bronze plaque on the stone to record the men who fell in the Great War, thus combining two historic artefacts. Approved restoration work was carried out in 2009 at a cost of £2,700. Grade II listed.
