Rey Cross
Rey Cross is the remains of a stone cross at Stainmore. It is also known as Rere Cross or Rear Cross and is a Grade II * listed structure. 〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title= Name: REY CROSS List entry Number: 1323025 ) 〕 ==Purpose== Believed to have been ten feet tall, a long-held local legend states it was the burial place of Eric Bloodaxe, Viking Ruler of Northumbria.〔Bibby, Andrew, and John Morrison. The Backbone of England: Landscape and Life on the Pennine Watershed, p. 166. London: Frances Lincoln, 2008. Google Books.〕 However, Norman Davies posits that it was a "boundary stone . . . halfway between Penrith and Barnard Castle."〔Davies, Norman. "Alt Clud." Vanished Kingdoms: The Rise and Fall of States and Nations. New York: Viking, 2012. 72. Print.〕
