Summary edit

Description
English: Newton Churchyard Cross, Porthcawl

Located in the churchyard on the south side of the Grade I listed Parish Church of St John the Baptist.

The CADW Listed Buildings Database records that this a restored medieval preaching cross. The four-step square plan base, 3.3 metres across, and the weathered socket stone are original features. The shaft, topped by a crucifixion, replaced a stump in about 1890. Churchyard crosses were the focus for funerary ritual and gave a platform for itinerant preachers. The Cross was Grade II listed in 1951.
