Description

The Market Cross and Market House in Easingwold is a simple market cross situated under a canopy. It dates from the mid-19th century, although the cross base is likely medieval. The structure features a stone 'cross' atop a square stepped base, supported by cast iron columns that hold up a Welsh slate roof. The overall design is square in plan with a hipped roof.
