Appendix B item (Stones wrongly associated with pre-Conquest period)
A scheduled ancient monument (23377) of which two further fragments are in Pontefract Museum. Early opinions on the date of this cross range from Roman or early post-Roman (Gough 1789, 286; Fox 1827, 356); or Saxon to Norman (Forrest 1871, 4, 128–9). It is clearly Norman, of the late eleventh to twelfth century, as described in its schedule entry (AA 21906/1), and in several unpublished descriptions in the Sites and Monuments Record for West Yorkshire.
