“Large carved granite stone, probably the base of a Medieval cross. Lower part is of rough, uncut stone, but the upper part is square with chamfered edges having worn stops at the foot. The top of the stone has its corners cut back and splayed to form an octagon, the bases of the splays, above the chamfered edges, being rounded to form convex stops. The face of the stone towards the road is incised with a shield bearing what appears to be a worn armorial device. The face towards the garden has 2 worn letters incised on it, probably T C.”
