Percy Cross, Medieval memorial stone in Otterburn, England.
Percy Cross features a square stepped base made of sandstone, measuring one meter in height and two meters in diameter, located near the A696 road.
The memorial was constructed before 1400 to mark the Battle of Otterburn from 1388, where English and Scottish forces engaged in a significant conflict.
The monument bears the name of Henry Percy, Earl of Northumberland, reflecting the influence of the Percy family in medieval English nobility.
Visitors can access the Grade II listed monument by following the A696 road, approximately one kilometer from the center of Otterburn.
The structure incorporates an old architrave from Otterburn Hall's kitchen fireplace, adding an architectural element from local history to its construction.
