Bromborough Cross Village Centre
One of the few things that remains of ancient Broborough is Bromborough Cross although even this is not completely the original. Edward I granted a charter for a market to be held each Monday and its location beneath a cross was in the hope that it would promote honest dealing. Today, the steps of the cross are the original 13th century but the cross is only a few years old having been presented as a gift by The Bromborough Society. In the centre of the photo is Church Square and the entrance to the church of St Barnabas.

St Barnabas, Bromborough
St Barnabas, in the centre of Bromborough village, is the Church of England parish church for Bromborough. The first church on the site of today's church was built 928AD, adjacent to a monastery founded 912AD, probably by Aethelflaeda, the Lady of the Mercians and daughter of Alfred the Great.
This Anglo-Saxon church was demolished in 1828, being replaced on the same site by another church which was itself replaced by the present church in 1864. A carved Anglo-Saxon preaching cross, discovered in the foundations of the first church, now stands by the south porch of the present church.

Cross at St Barnabas Church
The sign on the cross says "TO THE GLORY OF GOD THESE FRAGMENTS OF A SAXON CROSS EVIDENCE OF A CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY IN BROMBOROUGH A THOUSAND YEARS AGO WERE RE-ERECTED BY THE BROMBOROUGH SOCIETY IN 1958."
However, other sources state this is a Viking cross. Personally, I think it looks Celtic.
