The Dowdall Cross was erected by Dame Jennet Dowdall in 1601 as a memorial to her first husband, Sir William Bathe. The cross, repaired in 1810, is one of a series of crosses constructed by Jennet Dowdall in memory of Sir William Bathe. The cross is made of limestone and is elaborately carved with images of many saints.
