Anglo-Scandinavian cross, 11m east of St Edward's Church

A Scheduled Monument in Leek, Staffordshire

Round-shafted Mercian pillar cross, Leek

Uploader's Comments

The large cylindrical-shafted cross in the churchyard of St. Edward's is the most well preserved and complete example in Staffordshire of a round-shafted Mercian pillar cross. The base is modern and the cross-head is missing but the shaft survives well.
