Unless otherwise stated, this image is the copyright of the submitter. Contact them for permission to reproduce it. | | | Description | Ancient Anglian/Scandinavian Stone Cross at St John's Church, Waberthwaite.
South and East sides, showing the crisp unweathered carving on the south side.
The Cross Shaft is 2m high, and quite badly weathered, making it difficult to see the carvings on the main panels, however the edges (north and south sides) are still remarkedly clear.
The cross is thought to date from the 9th to 10th centuary, and shows influences of anglican and viking carving styles. |
