From the listing entry:
"The monument includes a medieval cross at Fulford, which is situated on the west side of Fulford Road, south west of the barracks. The cross, which is listed Grade II, dates from c.1484. It includes the lower portion of the cross shaft, which is octagonal in section and survives to a height of 1m. This is set into an octagonal base measuring 0.75m high, which itself is set upon a tier of three stone steps, all octagonal in shape."
