---

In Celtic regions of Ireland and Great Britain, many free-standing upright crosses—or high crosses—were erected, beginning at least as early as the 7th Century. Some of these 'Celtic' crosses bear inscriptions in runes. There are surviving free-standing crosses in Wales at Carew, St Brides and Nevern.
