Ancient Cross in Yorkshire (North)
This is recorded as Historic England list entry number 1010084 where full details and a technical description can be found there
It is a Wayside Cross located just north of Bloworth Crossing on Rudland Rigg beside an ancient drovers road now part of the Cleveland Way. It consists of a broken shaft set in a medieval base. It is the smaller of the two stones at this location. The large stone next to it is a Feversham Estate boundary stone.
Bradley is supposedly a corruption of “Breadless” a place where beggars gathered.
Jenny though a cross is regarded as the sister of the standing stone Margery Bradley near Flat Howe on the Castleton to Hutton Le Hole Road.
