I suspect the chap who wrote about it - King, I think - felt obliged to put it in just because otherwise people would be forever wrtiting to him pointing it out. Unfortunately, it now probably takes on a disproportionate amount of significance.

Still, there are so many of them, it's hard to make generalisations. Some of the east end ones _are_ crusifixes, partly because there were a lot of RCs there at the time and partly because it was felt that they connected the monuments to the battlefields in Belgium where crusifixes abounded. Aparently.
