Stock-Cross

STOCK-CROSS, a hamlet, in the parish of Speen, union of Newbury, hundred of Kintbury, county of Berks, 2½ miles (N. W.) from Newbury. A district church was erected and endowed in 1839, at the expense of the Rev. H. W. Majendie; it is a handsome cruciform edifice in the early English style, containing 400 sittings, of which 300 are free, and, being situated on elevated ground, forms an interesting feature in the surrounding landscape. The living is a perpetual curacy, in the patronage of the Vicar of Speen.

Transcribed from A Topographical Dictionary of England, by Samuel Lewis, seventh edition, published 1858.
