Full Description

{1}Not significant medieval documentation located which would assist in the understanding of the marketing functions. Market cross in village but extent of market place not determined. Good historic maps. There may be the potential to recover evidence related to medieval commercial functions when investigations take place for the other important issues listed above, but the site is not worth study for that issue alone.

Grant of yearly fair on the eve of St John the Baptist and two days after.
