The Leek plague stone
This is the broken stump of a medieval roadside cross, known locally as The Plague Stone. It is thought that provisions were left on or near the cross for the townspeople of Leek during the Bubonic Plague, and payment was left by the people in bowls of vinegar, to prevent spread of the disease.
