Wayside cross 130m ESE of Crazy Well Pool is a medieval stone cross located on Bodmin Moor in Devon, England. The monument consists of a granite cross shaft mounted on a stone base, typical of the wayside crosses that marked routes and boundaries across the moorland landscape during the medieval period. Such crosses served practical and spiritual functions, guiding travellers whilst also demarcating parish or estate boundaries. The cross's precise dating within the medieval period remains uncertain, though its form and construction are consistent with crosses erected or maintained from the later medieval era onwards.
