Woodhey Cross

Woodhey Cross is a late medieval stone cross, probably dating from the early 16th century, located near Faddiley in Cheshire, England. The structure is grade II* listed and is also a scheduled ancient monument. It stands at SJ57735263, at the junction of Woodhey Lane and Woodhey Hall Lane, around 500 m to the east of Woodhey Chapel.

The cross is constructed of red sandstone and stands around 130 cm high. It consists of a square shaft inserted into a large square base block, which rests on two levels of steps; the steps are formed of several stone pieces. No carving or inscription can be discerned.
