What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records The South Hill inscribed stone, an early Christian memorial stone in South Hill churchyard, 50m west of St Sampson's Church as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The South Hill inscribed stone dates to the early Christian period, likely between the 7th and 9th centuries AD, and may commemorate a local Christian figure or landowner. Its cross-carving and inscriptions reflect the spread of Christianity in the region and may be associated with the nearby St Sampson's Church.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
