Editing High cross (section)

==Modern period==
From the 19th century, many large modern versions have been erected for various functions, and smaller Celtic crosses have become popular for individual grave monuments, usually featuring only abstract ornament, usually [[interlace (visual arts)|interlace]].

In 1887, the Rev. [[William Slater Calverley]] commissioned a replica life-sized copy of Gosforth cross and had it erected in the churchyard at Aspatria, Cumbria.[3]

In the early 21st century, Irish sculptor Brendan McGloin was commissioned by the Ancient Order of Hibernians, Portland to handcraft a full size replica of the Clonmacnoise Cross of the Scriptures. The 13-foot, 5 tonne sandstone cross was completed in 2007 and shipped from [[Donegal (town)|Donegal]] to [[Portland, Oregon]], where it will stand as a Famine memorial. In 2016, a high cross was erected outside [[Wakefield Cathedral]], West Yorkshire, England, carved from stone quarried in [[Holmfirth]] and carved by Celia Kilner. This was based on the remains of a Saxon high cross, dated 930 A.D.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.pontefractandcastlefordexpress.co.uk/news/local-news/saxon-cross-raised-at-wakefield-cathedral-1-7816824|title=Saxon cross raised at Wakefield Cathedral|website=www.pontefractandcastlefordexpress.co.uk|access-date=19 May 2016}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://seiyaku.com/customs/crosses/wakefield.html|title=Wakefield Cathedral Cross|website=seiyaku.com|access-date=19 May 2016}}</ref>
