Situated to the north-east of the church this cross is quite inconspicuous, but closer inspection reveals a possible crucifiction carved in relief on the west face - however the figure seems to have its arms raised and the lichen does not help inspection.

The cross is about 1.3m tall and suspected to be late medieval.
