Local Crosses & Way-Markers
This Foldout collects the entries for some of the
Crosses,
Market crosses,
and
Way-Markers
which are – or were – to be found in the district
These may have been preaching sites – such as market crosses,
where people of a community gathered to pray before churches were
built – or way-markers for travellers across the moors
