Cross base 25m south of the tower of the parochial chapel, in the old churchyard, is a medieval stone monument located in Lancashire, England. The structure comprises a substantial masonry base that originally supported a cross shaft, typical of the churchyard crosses that served as focal points for religious and communal gatherings throughout the medieval period. Such monuments commonly date from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries, functioning both as markers of sacred space and as gathering points for parishioners. The survival of the base in situ within the old churchyard demonstrates the enduring significance of this site as a place of worship and community assembly across centuries.
