Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Crosses of Monmouthshire
The wayside crosses have been more difficult to identify than the churchyard, and in many cases the name has survived whilst the thing has gone. In Monmouthshire there are about thirty known sites of these about seventeen have some trace of a stone. Some remains are very interesting though not so much so as those in Cornwall. It is more than probable that there are many more unknownto the antiquary, but hidden away in corners of old paths and in field ways, and in the ditches that used to serve as roads. It is also likely that these crosses and also those in the churchyards were built upon the sites of others still more ancient.
