Styal Cross This cross was originally situated at Cross Farm, Styal. Around 1860 it was moved by Robert Hyde Greg to Holly Lane where is stood until 1980 when it was demolished in a car accident. The base, thought to be medieval, was built in 1983 on this site but the upper column remained a truncated stump until 2010. A campaign, instigated by the Styal Village Association, raised sufficient funds to rebuilt the upper half and restore the cross back to its original state.
