Description
Former site of Denbigh High Cross.
Denbigh High Cross originally stood where Crown Square meets the High Street. It was replaced by a modern cross in the mid 1840s and moved to the Royal Bowling Green in 1848. In 1983 the cross was moved once more to its current location near the end of Vale Street, some 60m east of its original position (see NPRN 23548). The modern cross was displaced by the War Memorial in 1923 (see NPRN 32718) and relocated to Lenten Pool, where it now presides over a roundabout (see NPRN 32695). The War Memorial has itself been shifted to the side of Crown Square.
The Royal Bowling Green site is now a car park.
