This record appears to be rather muddled; it contained detail from the 1953 Ordnance Survey card that relates to the churchyard cross (MDV8236) and is this is not relevant then the only detail is from Masson Phillips, who says it's located on the ?Okehampton road although by 1937 there were no remains and the early 20th century historic map, which shows the remains of a cross here.
