Stapleford’s Saxon Cross
Stapleford is an ancient town which has been subsumed into a suburb of Nottingham. It is included in the Domesday Book (without alteration to it name).
The word ‘staple’ is a Saxon word for a post next to a ford, and there is some speculation the Saxon Cross could be that post as there is no indication of a cross that has been removed from the top (although moved from its original site).
Stapleford is on the route of the prehistoric Derbyshire Portway which runs from the Hemlock Stone (as possible from a site near the Trent Bridge), to Mam Tor and beyond.

Conversion of a former lace factory. The original 19th century factory is the brick section to the rear, now providing apartments. The white painted section was a 20th century extension, very much modernised and with the penthouse storey added around 2017.
