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.
