Martock Market House & Cross

The hamstone Market House on Church Street was built around 1753 and restored and reopened in 1960. It is a Grade II listed building and now a community office to serve the town. The Market Cross, also known as The Pinnacle, with a fluted Tuscan column, dates from 1741. In PiP is Martock Post Office, which can be seen in the background of the main picture.

A fantastic series Rosa..............such a lovely looking place. The honey-coloured stone used for the buildings is really beautiful and seems to age very well.

Hardly any people and cars around either which is always a bonus for us photographers trying to take photos of this nature!

Rosalyn Hilborne ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

Thank you for your kind comments Keith. It's a very friendly place I always find, and they have a good cake shop! Very often these days, it's bins as well as cars! Happily there weren't many of either on the day I visited.

A lovely set of images, it would have been a very important area of the town in bygone times, I of course look at the estate agents and think why were they allowed to use a colour that doesn't fit in !! I hope your July has started well Rosalyn

3 years ago.

Rosalyn Hilborne ^club has replied to Peter Castell ^club

Thank you Peter. Strange actually, because the same company in Wincanton were made to change their colours and even use a wooden board, not plastic. Martock is a lovely large village though and has a very good cake shop ;-))

Peter Castell ^club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne ^club

A few simple changes can make such a difference to the overall appearance, something you would expect an estate agent to be well aware of
