The Cross sits in Middle Row, formerly Rotten Row, and denotes the market place. The cross was built in the early 14th century and was moved to this position in 1633 after the new market hall was built by William Adams.
The Market or "Butter" Cross of which this is the shaft and base,
was originally set up c.1280 in memory of Roger de Pyvelesdon,
and hence is also known as "The Puleston Cross".
It was probably mutilated during the Civil War.
The cross is protected as a monument of National Importance
