Cadw's description
Exterior
In field adjacent to Park House.
Three-step limestone base of village cross, about 3.3 m square. Probably greatly restored, as an object of interest visible from Park House.
The top stone of the cross survives, lying adjacent. Broadly chamfered section. Head part brought to a gable-point.
Listed as a mediaeval fragment and a last surviving marker of the position of Stackpole village before its removal in the interests of landscape improvement by Lord Cawdor c.1800.
