Built into the garden wall of 15 Crowtrees Lane (south of the church), fronting the street.

Reported by Peter Thornborrow of the West Yorkshire Archaeology Service. Said to have been found by a local antiquarian, H. Travis Clay, in 1913 when Rastrick Library was built. The library is on Crowtrees Lane, on the opposite side of the road, south of its present position. Barber (1871, 2) noted that at Rastrick there was an ancient cross on the hillside, near 'traces of a road in the cultivated ground still distinctly visible and always spoken of by the inhabitants as the "old road"', but it cannot be shown that this was part of that cross.

Damaged and very worn

It is impossible to determine anything of the form of the original monument. All that remains is a strand-like feature on the left which develops at the top into a spiral scroll.

J. T. Lang believed it to be Romanesque, pers. comm. to Heginbottom (1988, 2), who, however, believed it to be a section of a seventeenth-century door lintel 'decorated in a typical local style'. The strand is fine, rounded and wiry as on the cross-base in the churchyard (Rastrick 1, p. 229, Ills. 626–8), but there is nothing to confirm the final form of ornament or monument.
