Mr Whittaker enclosed the ground behind this building with a stone wall. His intention was to make this spot "Gee Cross Market Place".<BR/>It never took of and the building fell into disrepair and the top two storeys were removed and the big wall was built that still stands now in parts.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25658231.post-15393267091736284432008-07-14T11:56:00.000+01:002008-07-14T11:56:00.000+01:00Thankyou for updating your list with my now workin...Thankyou for updating your list with my now working blog!
