    A monument to Samuel Wilberforce, Bishop of Winchester and son of abolitionist William Wilberforce. It marks the spot where Samuel was killed after falling from his horse.

      If one were to categorize the more or less numerous small sacred monuments that hikers repeatedly encounter along the way according to their purpose, i.e., the reason for their erection, this stone monument is a classic memorial cross. It was erected here to commemorate a person murdered at this spot—in this case, a person of higher clerical rank, namely Bishop Samuel Wilberforce.
