	Market cross - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A market cross is a structure, traditionally cruciform, used to mark a market square in market towns, originally from Western European architecture.
		Market crosses can be found in most market towns in Britain, among other regions.
		These structures range from carved stone spires, obelisks or crosses, common to small market towns, such as that in Stalbridge, Dorset, to large, ornate covered structures, such as the Chichester Cross in Chichester, West Sussex.

	Florilegium urbanum - Market cross
		The Cross Cheaping cross was rebuilt in 1542, thanks to a bequest of £200 from Sir William Hollis, a former mayor of London, who had connections with Coventry; the medieval cross at Abingdon (which has not survived) appears to have been taken as the model.
		This cross was named the Headless Cross, a name used throughout the fourteenth century; it was perhaps the same as the High Cross for which a street north of Carlton is still named.
		On the northwest side of this cross was held the Women's Market, mentioned as a tithing in 1396, and heard of again in 1435, when suggested that the name was no longer widely used, although in fact it is mentioned in a deed of 1503.

	Scottish Market Crosses - the Development of a Risk Assessment Model
		Geographically, market crosses are situated in many town centres in mainland Scotland, with a distribution that tapers to the north and west, according to the existence historically of burghs.
		The market cross today is frequently still located in town centres and has thus been vulnerable to a range of damage types, including human agencies such as vandalism, re-siting, and motor vehicle and atmospheric pollutants generally.
		Market crosses are not included in the current research being undertaken by Historic Scotland into the decay of carved stone surfaces in Scotland and there is thus an urgent need to review the management strategy for this monument type.

		The significance of the cross to at least the ruling class of Bristol is indicated in the preparedness to spend £20 in 1491 to paint and gild the embellishments on the monument.
		Quite a few of the crosses did not even survive the Reformation, although some were superseded by roofed versions, which continued to be called market crosses; this form sometimes evolved into market halls that were enclosed, either entirely or at least the upper storey.
		Bewell's Cross stood in the Gallows Field at the top of St. Michael's Hill; part of its function was to mark the boundary of the county of Bristol.

	URC & Market Cross
		The original Market Cross was erected in 1722 as a square building with a roof and four open sides designed to afford shelter to those attending the weekly market.

	The Metheringham Market Cross
		A cross was built in 1911 to celebrate George V's coronation and the remnants of the previous cross were moved to the wall adjacent to the library, the centre section was removed after vandals wrecked it.
		Owing to the dilapidated condition of the old cross, it was, after advice had been taken as to its antiquarian interest, pulled down, and this new one erected, as a memorial of the Coronation of King George V and Queen Mary.
		Although there was no evidence that the cross was older than 1835, they were probably justified in thinking that there was such a cross there previous to that date, as a long time previous the place was named Cross Hill.

		In a market with cross-market externalities, however, increased compatibility leads to increased profits.
