Discovery: | first mentioned, 1803 Polwhele, R. |
History: | Okasha/1993, 128--9, notes that the cross was mentioned in connection with a base (LHADN/1) in 1803. Henderson noted the cross on a map of 1839 but Okasha is unable to locate this map. A letter of 1873 says that the cross was thrown down by a farmer looking for money, `before my remembrance part of the pillar had been taken away, and also the cross that stood on top of it'. Neither shaft or head have been mentioned in print since. A drawing of the shaft in the 18th century is to be seen in a manuscript in the British Library (BL MS Stowe 1023, p. 47, renumbered as p. 29). |
