Market Cross, Ambleside

Market Cross
Ambleside
Cumbria

This simple market cross can be found in front of the Salutation Hotel on Rydal Road in Ambleside. It is a grade II listed structure, and consists of a fairly recent\modern three stepped base, with an octagonal shaft. The original head has obviously been broken off at some point, and the square end has been placed on the end of the shaft.

There seems to be very little information regarding this cross....so as usual, as soon as more information becomes available, I'll post it here.
