Headless Cross, Friar Gate-Brick Street, Derby
Originally formed as a medieval cross which was used by local Derby people during the plague supposedly around 1665 although there are arguments about this. During the plague people from outside the town would deposit there goods for sale nearby the stone and any money from local Derby people was deposited into a bowl of vinegar on top of the stone with the idea being that the vinegar would disinfect the money thus killing off the plague from the money and the outside people could collect the uninfected money.

The Headless Cross Friargate
The Headless Cross in Friar Gate, Derby - A Grade II Listed Ancient Monument at the heart of a busy thoroughfare is a medieval preaching cross. Unobtrusive, indeed easily missed, it renders itself immediately mysterious for what it lacks. The base lost its cross at least six centuries ago – hence its contradictory title ‘The Headless Cross’.
