What is recorded here
No. 6 in Nobber is a small crudely shaped Latin cross, 44cms high and 30cms wide, set toward the south-western end of the graveyard among uncut stones. Its shaft rises pointed and uneven, its arms carved without decoration, and its surface has worn until every edge has softened. It does not announce itself or demand admiration. It stands where death was once made visible, small enough to overlook and old enough to remind anyone stopping beside it that visibility itself is not the same as understanding.

It is located toward the south-western end of the graveyard in a row with some small uncut stones. The upper shaft is quite high and pointed while the arms are unevenly carved.
