Thank you for your response rdp46
Yes we now know that the cross is unconstitutional as it has taken a court case to acknowledge that it is so, but the Cross has stood there for over ninety years and I assume it was erected with the consent of local authorities at that time and maintained by them since its erection. I assume that it was continually accepted by the majority of local citizens and is  now an established landmark know by young and old. 
One could almost say it is historical and part of the local culture…. 
Nevertheless the court action to have it removed aligns itself with my ongoing observation stated in my post above, in that the promotion of symbols of Christianity in the West, are been discouraged, and gradually been expunged public consciousness.
