About

Market Cross is a memorial in south east. (Historic monument in Devizes, England.) According to Wikipedia: "The Market Cross in Devizes, Wiltshire, England sits in Market Place at the centre of the town. It was constructed in 1814 on the site of an older cross. Designed by architect James Wyatt, it is Gothic in style. It was completed posthumously to his design, following Wyatt's death in a coach accident near Marlborough. His son Benjamin Wyatt is also credited as the architect, likely because he executed his father's design."
