Cross base in All Saints' churchyard is a medieval stone monument consisting of the base structure of a former cross, located in the churchyard of All Saints' Church in Yorkshire. The surviving base represents the lower portion of what was originally a complete churchyard cross, a common feature of English parishes from the medieval period onwards. The monument dates to the medieval period, though the precise century of its construction is not definitively documented in the available scholarly record. Such crosses typically served both liturgical and social functions within their communities, and the survival of this base, even in fragmentary form, provides evidence of the historical development and religious practices of the parish.
