Celtic Cross, St Bees Priory

A 10th century Celtic cross in the old churchyard of St Bees Priory, St Bees, Cumbria.
This anglo-saxon cross is decorated with interlace and animals. At that time there would have been no individual grave markers and this one cross would have served for all in the graveyard. Grade 1 Listed.
