Wooden Calvary cross with Christ effigy on crosspiece and a gabled top, stands on a stone mound. Located just outside the entrance porch of the church. Set into the front face of the stone mound is a plaque of polished granite resting on a stone pedestal. The plaque bears an inscription "Crucified Jesus have mercy on the souls of..." followed by the names of men killed in the First World War, in two columns. Below this is another stone plaque attached onto the original plaque so that it is slightly raised, bearing the names of those who gave their lives in WW2. Present condition: Calvary is leaning slightly due to insecure foundations (1).
