Photographs (taken in 2008) of the pre-Norman stone cross fragments

One side face of the larger stone


The other side has no carvings; it is believed is was dressed off when the stone was requisitioned for building into the church wall in the medieval? period.

There are two stones which were found some years ago and were removed from the walls of the Church. They are parts of different monuments and the smaller one is the older. They are assigned by the late Professor Collingwood to the tenth and eleventh centuries and are fully discussed by him in the Yorkshire Archaeological Journal, vol. xxiii.
Photographs taken by Denis Lister and David Teal.
