Hutchinson's Cross/Devonport Leat Cross, Princetown, Dartmoor National Park

In his 'Walking The Dartmoor Waterways: A guide to retracing the leats and canals of the Dartmoor country', Eric Hemery writes:

'Above the right bank [of the Devonport Leat] stands a modern granite cross erected in 1968 by Lieutenant Commander B. Hutchinson of Stoke Fleming, in memory of his mother: the panelled inscriptions read SLH (west face) and 1887 1966 (east face).'

We've positioned Hutchinson's Cross/Devonport Leat Cross on Google maps so zoom in on the 'Satellite' setting to see its location. The cross is just west of Nun's or Siward's Cross and Nun's Cross Farm. These are easily accessible from the car parking areas on the narrow road that runs between Princetown and Whiteworks.
