Stone Cross

Head of Cross






Just southwest of the village of Minions in Cornwall are at least two medieval stone crosses. They are located amid scenice landscape along the road between the Hurlers (1500 BC) and King Doniert's Stone (876 AD).

The crosses are fairly plain, with an undecorated shaft and Greek cross head. Their names and dates are unknown to this author, but they may be 9th or 10th century.
