Lanivet Cross

Lanivet Cross (StreetView)
The Lanivet Cross is located in the churchyard of St.Nivet's Church in the small village of Lanivet in Cornwall.

The cross is a ring headed or four-holed Celtic Cross to the west of the church and is a Scheduled Monument. It is believed to be in its original position and is a rare example of a pre-Norman cross in Cornwall.

The ring arms are decorated with Triquetra Knot, while the side panels are decorated with a tight spiralling plant scroll, a three stranded plait, a plant trail, and figure-of-eight knotwork.
