Good subject! I think the legend about the cross being moved was in fact about he foundation stones for the Parish church being moved in the night a few times . This story also turns up in Rochdale, where it was the Devil who moved the stones, and in Bolton they were shifted by flying pigs! The tales have some connection to the coming of Christianity and its taking over or consecrating pagan sites, not all the locals would be in support...
There's supposed to be a tunnel from the Parish church to the cellars of the Eagle and Child, and I've seen a shadowy ghost-like figure in the pub- it's said to be haunted.
