The small sacred monument, listed here in the komoot system under the name "Stone Cross Monument," is called "Compston's Cross." It has a base of three tapered brick circles and has stood at this location for more than 120 years. It is likely of older origin, as the stone cross is said to have been relocated here – about halfway between Clough Bottom Reservoir and Clowbridge Reservoir – at the beginning of the 20th century.

Head up to the first reservoir before coming to the gate where you bear right and head up to the sheep track

Many sacred and secular monuments that hikers pass on their journeys are of a venerable age. Often they were erected generations ago, some even centuries ago. Here, however, we encounter a very modern sound sculpture from this century. Although from a distance, one initially only gets a visual impression of the prominently located installation, the acoustic effect becomes apparent upon approach. The wind transforms the assembled steel pipes into a sound installation.

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.
