Full Description
{1}Charters of the mid 13th century mention a cross standing in the road and near to the way leading towards Staverton. This would have been the cross known to have been at the junction at the western end of High Street. The clerk Richard de Boudon was granted a messuage in the vicinity and evidently gave his name to Boudon Lane, later called Taverne Lane.
