St Gordian's Cross

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records St Gordian's Cross as Cross Base (early Medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

St Gordian's Cross is associated with St Gordian, a 3rd-century Christian martyr and saint venerated in parts of Britain and Ireland. Little specific folklore or historical tradition directly links this particular cross to a local cure or ritual, though such sites were often places of pilgrimage and prayer in early Christian Scotland.
