The intricate details of this ancient cross are beautifully captured in this nineteenth-century pencil drawing, which has been preserved and collected by C G Harper. The artwork transports us back to medieval times, allowing us to marvel at the craftsmanship and artistry of our ancestors. Standing tall amidst the churchyard, the cross shaft exudes a sense of grandeur and spirituality that is truly awe-inspiring.
