Black and white photograph of the carved stone cross which is a memorial to Walter Jervoise Scott, one of the pioneers of the Valley of Lagoons Station and of Cardwell. This granite cross was sent from Scotland in 1890 to be placed on Walter Scott's grave at the Valley of Lagoons but it proved too heavy and awkward for a bullock team to haul it up the steep Dalrymple Gap Track. The cross was located on land owned by the Scott brothers in Cardwell until 1965 when it was moved by crane to the present location on Victoria Street, in front of the Anglican Church
