Appeal over missing historic Peak District stone
Approaching Hope Cross from Crookstone Hill on the path up to Win Hill, by Chris Morgan
CONSERVATIONISTS are appealing for help to track down a historic stone which has disappeared from the top of a listed monument at a Peak District beauty spot.
Hope Cross, on the ridge north of Hope village, is Grade II listed and believed to date back to 1737.
National Trust volunteer Chris Morgan said: “Sadly, the capstone has disappeared. The National Trust know the capstone was in place just before Christmas. It was missing by the first week in January. A search nearby has found no trace.”
