Visit Notes

Sunday, 9th June 2002

This is not officially called the School Cross - that's just a name I have given it to differentiate it from the others in the area. I picked this name because the cross stands at the roadside irritatingly built into the front wall of the school.

It's not a particularly nice cross, but I'm sure it would look much better free standing.
