The original cross at Banbury stood in the
Market Place, and was built of stone with steps surrounding it. The tall shaft carried
carvings and a crucifix. It was destroyed by Puritans in July 1660, because they thought
that it attracted superstitious veneration from the people. The road is known as 'Horse
Fair' and the tower of ST Mary's church can be seen to the right of the monument.
