Chipping Campden

Travelled down into the Cotswolds today for a job in Chipping. My photo, but following description taken from the web -

"The ancient Market Hall was built in 1627 by Sir Baptist Hicks for a cost of £90.00. It was for the purpose of giving shelter to the local market selling cheeese, butter and poultry - not wool as is sometimes thought.

Each corner of the building has a pediment, and each gable had a window which is now blocked up. The side arches have stone ballustrades and the floor is paved with stone. "
