This cross is located in the churchyard at St Minver.

It is a small latin cross, which once stood in a field at Treglines farm, close to the old quaker burial ground. Treglines farm is situated one mile north-west of the parish church and lay on an ancient track used by fishermen walking between St Enodoc and Port Isaac.
The cross was moved to its current location in 1879.

St Minver cross
St Minver cross submitted by Antonine : The Church is dedicated to Saint Menefreda, one of the 24 children of Brychan who came to Cornwall from Wales in the 5th century. The church s probably built on a pagan site. In the oldest part of the churchyard are crude slate coffins believed to be pre-Christian burials. The Grade II listed wayside cross stands 3 metres west of the South Porch. (Vote or comment on this photo)
