Lymm Cross, Market cross in Lymm, England
The cross stands on a red sandstone outcrop with a square pavilion featuring corner pillars and a stone roof with pedimented gables at each face.
Dating from the early to mid-17th century, the structure received restoration work in 1897 to commemorate Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee with added bronze sundials.
The cross marked a central meeting point for the village community, where people gathered for announcements and public ceremonies throughout different centuries.

The structure includes three bronze sundials with philosophical inscriptions such as 'We are a Shadow', 'Save Time', and 'Think of the Last' on its gables.
