This cross is lovely. It's big, it's rough and it's very tactile. There is no decoration on it, but it is made from a red/brown sandstone that has veins of a harder stone running through it. This has cause the cross to erode unevenly so that the veins are raised.
The cross stands over 2.5m tall and offers wonderful views across the bay. The church here is no more than a shell, but this and its remote location hint at the age of this site as a Christian settlement.
