At the start of October, these large wooden crosses paying homage to original Saxon Crosses were unveiled. The Sandbach Crosses are tucked away; these modern versions are more prominently situated, and also intended as an 'advert' for the older monuments. A number of religious and spiritual motifs are engraved upon them, with zoomorphic interlace.
