Cemetery Crucifix located in St John's Church

During the interval in the Cromwell Singers' 'Together for Christmas' concert - which was terrific- David Clow, who researched the 1943 bombing of the original church, asked where the crucifix, which had been in the cemetery chapel, was to be found.

David Oats took him to look at it. There it is on display near the front of the church on the left hand side, along with an information sheet.

I wonder where it was displayed in our chapel?
