Abstract/Summary

Blatherwycke Cross was displaced in February 1998 by a combination of tree root disturbance, nearby drainage works and vegetation clearance. In August 2001 Northamptonshire Archaeology recorded the cross, its former location and nearby earthwork. The broken base of the cross shaft was located partially underneath a willow tree, while the earthworks were interpreted as part of a former spring culvert of recent date. The cross was located in a grain store nearby amd an inscription from 1835 was noted on one side.
