Robin Hood's Cross.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2016-08-30. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2019-02-21.
Robin Hood's Cross is the name of a medieval wayside cross, of which now only the base survives, about 1.25 km SE of Bradwell in the parish of Hazelbadge. Dobson & Taylor suggest it may have originated as a boundary mark.[1] A list of minor monuments in Derbyshire, published 1934, notes it as being "[o]n Abney Moor; built into wall near an old track to Shatton; behind a stile".[2] It is recorded in 1319 as 'Robin Crosse' and is indicated as 'the Robins Crosse' on a 1640 unpublished map.[3] Dobson & taylor in their entry of this place-name use the form 'Robin Hood Cross'. The form with genitive 's' appears on the 6" O.S. maps from the years 1883 to 1923 (see Maps section below).
