Log Text: This monument is more properly known as the 'Rey Cross' (or occasionally 'Rere Cross'). The cross was originally located approximately 500 metres due west of its current position at the summit of the road within the Roman Marching Camp. In August 1990 the cross was lifted from its original position and moved to the Bowes Museum to keep it safe while the A66 was dualled. It was placed in its current position in 1992.
