Found in Lady Lane (and now in the care of the Medieval Museum). It is decorated in false relief with a four-armed fleur-de-lys cross on steps with two supports on either side of the shaft and a circle around the transom. On either side of the cross there is a hammer and pincers which may be either the symbols of the Passion or tradesmen's tools. Above the cross there is an INRI and below the barred knop KM 1582 KB. The edges are chipped and the upper right corner is missing.
Dims. 1.6m x 0.85m; T 0.1m.
