Obelisk

After a very fine sausage and chips lunch in the Cafe on the Square in Broughton I stopped. for once, to study the obelisk in the square and find out exactly what it was .  I find it was erected in 1810  to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of George III.  There is as you can see a  fine set of stocks in front . Both the obelisk and the stocks are Grade 2 listed but Historic England does not know the date of the stocks.
