Description

The Bury St Edmunds Market Cross stands at the heart of the town.

Designed in 1774 by the celebrated architect Robert Adam, this ‘neat and beautiful theatre’ is celebrated as a brilliant example of decorative neoclassical architecture. The Market Cross has played a vital community role, first drawing audiences for plays and musical performances, and later becoming the Town Hall and an art gallery. Beneath its feet lies an older story — one which reveals the secrets of the original medieval marketplace, and the ravages of the Great Fire of Bury in 1608. Now marking 250 years since Robert Adam revealed his design, this is the story of the iconic landmark and the people who created it
