Huntingdon Cross

This is a small cross sitting on the Abbots Way beside the River Avon at Huntingdon Warren, it was used in the 1500s as a boundary marker for the Brent area on Dartmoor. The cross itself is difficult to see from any distance, being set in a valley and backed by a stone wall that the cross blends in to.
