Re: Cross Shaped Stone of Keverigg by Anne T on Saturday, 09 July 2022

We spotted this stone on the OS map this afternoon (9th July 2022), whilst looking at the cross in Bampton Grange Cemetery, so went in search of it.

Using the grid reference given by MonumentMan, we did indeed find the cross-shaped stone he photographed.

Doing some research on the cross stone this evening, I came across this link from the Old Cumbria Gazetteer: Cross Stone of Keverigg, The grid reference that OCG gives is NY 5751 1687.

The main image on this site page is sadly not the true Cross Stone of Keverigg, but as MonumentMan says in his descriptions, a cross-shaped stone nearby. See his link to Geograph for an image of the actual stone.

My impression of the 'cross shaped stone' was, being near/on limestone pavement, that it was an old quarried stone, but I could very well be wrong! Happy to be corrected.

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
