One of the few things that remains of ancient Broborough is Bromborough Cross although even this is not completely the original. Edward I granted a charter for a market to be held each Monday and its location beneath a cross was in the hope that it would promote honest dealing. Today, the steps of the cross are the original 13th century but the cross is only a few years old having been presented as a gift by The Bromborough Society. In the centre of the photo is Church Square and the entrance to the church of St Barnabas.
