The most typical feature in the design of Celtic crosses is the circle connecting the horizontal and vertical bars. This is sometimes interpreted as a symbol of the sun; in this sense, Celtic crosses are sometimes also called sun crosses. I found the following meditative reflection on this topic while working as a chaplain in the Protestant deanery of Nassauer Land: "The sun cross is a special symbol of Celtic Christianity. It can become a symbol of spirituality. + What you can practice – the horizontal arm of the cross. Your conscious rituals, prayers, quiet moments. The attention you give to the sacred. + What happens to you – the vertical arm of the cross. Experiences that touch and transform you. Moments in which you sense something greater than yourself. + What gives you interpretation – the circle that encloses both. Words, stories, and traditions that help you understand and share these experiences. Spirituality connects you to sources of strength that reach deeper than what you can see. For me as a Christian, spirituality is a word for encountering the God who revealed himself in Jesus."

Frensham Little Pond is more tranquil and offers a greater variety of walks and scenery than its nearby neighbour the Frensham Great Pond. Although the circular walk around the Little Pond can become a little busy at weekends there are plenty of other quieter paths to explore!

Haslemere is a great place to start a trail run. It has a railway station with frequent trains from London or Portsmouth and is surrounded by beautiful common land, hills and woodlands. You can run to the Devil's Punchbowl, Blackdown, Marley Common and into the South Downs National Park from here. There are also plenty of places to eat and drink afterwards too. Hemmingway's is always a popular option if you love cake.

Holy Cross is an impressive church which traces its origins back to the 12th century and boasts the addition of two chapels in the 14th century. Notable features include an eye-catching stained glass window crafted by Capronnier, a memorial dedicated to Sir Richard de Westcote – regarded as the earliest known resident of the village – and a complete peal of six resounding bells. In the churchyard, a poignant landmark resides in the form of the final resting place of Viscount Montgomery of Alamein.
