Shillito Cross
An ancient waymarker
eastern_moors_partnership had to fence it off recently due to repeated incidents of the cross having graffiti scratched in to it
The fence is to protect it until (and if) the graffiti could be professionally removed
Today somebody has decided to scatter what appears to be the ashes of a human (or large animal ?) around the cross
The spreading of cremation ashes in the @peakdistrictnationalpark and indeed in all countryside is not permitted without the explicit permission of the landowner or landmanager for scientifically proven reasons around the impact of introducing ashes to ecosystems
