The ensemble is located along the Chemin des Ecoliers, linking the village of Glénic to Villelot. The cross features a dated cross-brace, a small entablature separating the cross from the cylindrical shaft, and a base resting on a granite plinth. In front of the cross is a resting place. The cross was rebuilt at the end of the 19th century, and is probably the successor to a cross saved during the Revolution by local residents, who had hidden it in the nearby fishery.
Near this cross, a square-shaped masonry fountain was, before 1939, the village's only water source. A wooden door closes the opening. Two bucket stones are set into the masonry.
A wash-house, fed by the fountain, has unfortunately been destroyed.
