Summary

Description
English: Ilchester: The Market Cross This column was built in 1795 at the north end of the town green on the site of an earlier market cross. Somerset County Council's Historic Environment Record describes it thus:

"Ham stone. Circular base with two chamfered offsets, set on circular step; square stepped plinth carrying simple Doric column with entablature moulding over, then square-plan block with sundials having sheet metal gnomons, and a ball finial with wrought-iron wind vane."

It is a Grade II listed structure and English Heritage Listed Building Number 263445. The top portion was blown over in a storm on 25 January 1991 and rebuilt the following year.
