Octagonal on plan, with lead covered dome roof, wood pedestal supporting a lead figure of justice weighing 18 cwt, added in 1754. The columns are now supported on stone plinths but originally the area of the cross was raised on steps, the columns resting on wood bases, and in the centre was a prisoner's cage for temporary detention of delinquents, which was removed in 1836, the steps being done away with in 1867, when an earlier dungeon was discovered underneath, said to be the remains of the earlier cross destroyed by the fire of 1688.
