Anglo-Scandinavian cross, Spondon
Dating from around the 9th century, and located in the churchyard of St Werburgh's church. The only example in Derbyshire of a cross of this nature carved from limestone rather than sandstone; the result is that the decorative carving is severely eroded. Scheduled monument.

Spondon village, Derbys.
A westward view from the cul-de-sac end of Park Road. These stone gate piers mark the entrance to the former "Field House" (a.k.a. The Hall). This residence was built c.1750 for the Osborne family. Having fallen into disrepair c.1918 it was bought by the local Education Authority and is now the site of a school. The gates are all that remain of the property and they now serve to mark the entrance of West Park School and also, one of the access points into the West Park Meadows Local Nature Reserve. The nature reserve is accessed via a sloping asphalted path beyond the left hand archway.
