What is recorded here
A named place photographed at this map point in Powys.
The high cross at Crickhowell was likely erected in the 9th or 10th century by a local Christian community, possibly of Welsh origin. It is a simple, unadorned cross, typical of early medieval Wales, and may have served as a waymarker or site of religious observance in a rural Christian landscape.
