Monument Number 5796

Hob Uid: 5796
Location :
Northumberland
Bewick
Grid Ref : NU0679022150
Summary : Built into the south west corner of Holy Trinity church porch is part of an cross shaft with triple beads at each angle, and a socketed joint. It is now a badly weathered stone 0.4 metres square in section, and 0.65 metres high, with a shallow basin in the top. If it is a cross shaft fragment, as seems likely, it was probably later utilized as a plague stone.
