Description: Market Cross at Horsington, Somerset. A plaque near the cross states: "This cross of Ham Hill stone, was once the scene of the village market. Possibly St. Aldhelm of Sherborne preached here (about 705 A.D.) before the church was built. It may have been erected on the grant of Free Warren to the Lord of the Manor in 1284, giving him the right to hold a fair, a market, and a court."
