More about this scene

A bridge over the River Hull made this village an important crossroads in medieval times - pleasure boats still tie up here. The village was bestowed to Thornton Abbey in Lincolnshire until the dissolution in 1539. A charter was granted to the village for markets to be held every year around the cross on 10 July and 2 October. This, the second cross, was erected in 1811, but it suffered from erosion, and now a replica adorns the market place.
