A Northowram snow scene.

Ahhh....sorry, different Stump Cross. There's a place called Stump Cross which used to be a hamlet on the edge of NOrthowram, and is now classed as part of Northowram.

The Stump Cross caverns are in a different area.

There are a lot of 'Stump Crosses' which tends to denote a point that used to have a stone cross marking the Parish boundaries, which had the top broken off during the Cromwell years. (hence they became called stump crosses).
