Old Market Place, Stocks and Whipping Post
The seventeenth century Buttermarket was in the middle of Old Market Place until about 1850. Over the Buttermarket was the courtroom with a lock-up at the side until 1838. There were also a stocks and a whipping post. Public floggings, eg for stealing, took place here until the early 19th century.
As well as the replica market cross (Image]), the Market Place Traders erected the replica, stocks and whipping post in 1990. The lintel from the Police Lock-ups of 1838 in George Street, which were closed in 1866, was incorporated into the stocks’ seat.

The Old Market Place
The cross is a replica (erected in 1990) of the original market cross which stood here, in front of the seventeenth century Buttermarket. The "Orange Tree", behind the cross, and some of the adjacent buildings have fragments of 16th and 17th century buildings. The Orange Tree, which has been a pub only since the 1880’s, consists of two ancient timber buildings which had an alley on the left and has wattle and daub remains in a back room.
