Celtic High Crosses of Wales
The inscribed stone crosses and pre Norman decorated high crosses constitute an important body of evidence for early Christian activity throughout Wales. This book shows the interplay of design, iconography and symbolism in the sculpture and placement of the Celtic crosses. A complete descriptive survey of all the crosses and decorated fragments, covering the whole of Wales, begins with the Penmon cross in Anglesey and ends at the Whitford cross in Flintshire.
