Ancient Cross in Worcestershire
Fragment of an Anglo-Saxon cross in a glass cabinet in the nave of the church. There is more of interest inside the church than you would expect from its outwardly largely Victorian appearance.
[Note: for more information about the church, see the listing for it on Historic England's List ID 1082426. As rogerkread says, perhaps more interesting than first appears.]
