Description
The Market Cross, traditionally dated to 1777, is an ashlar circular peripteral Roman Doric temple with a saucer dome. It features four stone steps and has a 19th-century wrought iron weather vane. This structure is part of a family of market crosses that includes those at Swaffham in Norfolk, Bungay in Suffolk, and Mountsorrel in Leicestershire, as well as the ornamental rotunda at Duncombe Park in Yorkshire, Stowe and Hall Barn in Buckinghamshire, and previously existing crosses at Halswell in Somerset, High Cliffe in Hampshire, and Hackwood Park in Hampshire. The Butter Cross, which originally stood on this site, was traditionally re-erected on Doncaster Road.
