    The Alford cross is really an Ashridge artefact despite the fact that it stands outside the Park boundary in Little Gaddesden parish. Erected in 1891 to commemorate the life of of an aristocratic landlady (Lady Marian Alford) who influenced the life of many workers on the Estate for some twenty years.
