Summary

edit
Description
English: Old Wayside Cross, Walkington, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
Walkington Cross, a wayside cross with an old shaft & base. Set in a hedge with railings around on the south side of the B1230 Beverley Road on the eastern side of the village in Walkington parish. King Athelstan visited Beverley in the 10th century to solicit support from St John of Beverley (who died in 721) in his campaign to subdue northern Britain. Following his success, he granted the town enhanced sanctuary boundaries, marking four main roads with crosses around a mile and a half from the Minster where legend tells us he provided a Frith Stool (means peace and protection in Old English) for miscreants to claim sanctuary. A Scheduled Monument.
