Here, the hiker or walker encounters a small sacred monument, which, upon closer examination of its history, takes us back a remarkable five centuries. The lowest element is a staircase resembling a step pyramid with seven steps, topped by a tapered base. A column resting on top of it supports the actual cross far above our heads. A plaque with an inscription asks us to pray for the soul of John Foldy's Chaplain, the erector of this cross.
