Image: © Colin Smith Taken: 27 Jul 2006

The fragment of old 16th Century Cross stands in front of the Town House, now a visitor centre. The cross formerly stood further down the street, by the rear of the University's Geography Department. The cobbled street still has many old houses (this is a conservation area). In the distance are The Machar Bar and Blackwell's University Bookshop.
