In the churchyard of St Peter's, Creeton, are two fine examples of Anglo-Saxon cross shafts. One, which stands near the church door, has late Anglo-Saxon ornamentation on the back and two sides (conventional late 10th or 11th century interlace) and Norman work, clearly a palimpsest, on the face (two large 12th century roundels filled with conventional star decoration). The other, 4 foot 2 inches high, is of purely Anglo-Saxon character and is set up at the head of a modern grave by the rectory gate. It is of late 10th century date, and is collared. It has interlace decoration on three sides and a debased vine-scroll on the fourth. There is a third stone in the wall by the south doorway. {1}{2}{3}{4}{5}{6}{7} The cross by the rectory gate is at TF01441988. The third stone reported in the wall by the south door, was not identified. {1} Pevsner records several similar but lesser fragments built into the church fabric. {7}
