Front Inscription

The Cross, measuring 6.8 metres in height, was erected on 13th April 2006 as a permanent tribute to the Chistian faith of the early pioneers of Eden Valley.

It replaced a smaller wooden cross which had been placed here many years earlier.

The Cross is a focal point of an annual community church service held here every Easter Sunday at dawn.
