From the rear, the old stone and cross head look more like a single stone...

View from the road, clearly showing the ‘patching’ of the cross onto the old stone.

The way this has been ‘restored’ onto the church boundary wall, makes it look like one with the large (probably originally standing) stone underneath it. I don’t think this is the case though. Andrew Langdon in ‘Stone Crosses of West Penwith’ states that “the shaft and base no longer exist”.
