It has a rectangular section and fleur-de-lis finials. It is set on a quadrangular pedestal with a heavily eroded inscription on the upper part, where "A CRISTO REY" can be read, and below it another barely legible line reading "ANO 1930". This monument is located in front of Bar Quinteiro and the area known as O Eido do Cura, so called for being the site of the former rectory.
