Red sandstone 3½ metres high. 2 squared step slabs support chamfered plinth hollowed to form shaft socket: squared column with chamfered corners and head carved to give a quatra-form cross. Formerly the steps were in the centre of The Green and formed the base for a wooden maypole, which was erected at the expense of Henry Howard, of nearby Corby Castle, in 1814. Later replaced by stone cross, when moved to its present location.... -
