Summary
| Description |
English: Southcott Cross This cross is very rare, if not unique, in Devon in having a human figure in the form of a crucified person incised on its roadside face. It is probably of 13th century origin, but the first records of it are from its current position in the early 19th century. It is suggested that it could, originally, have been a waymarker for the Cistercian Monks of Brightley Priory, which stood on the banks of the West Okement River, near Okehampton Castle. |
