More about this scene
Hockerill Street leads downhill into the town from the crossroads with the London to Newmarket road. Each corner was once occupied by a public house or inn. In 1896, at the centre of the crossroads, an ornate stone fountain was erected to the memory of Mr George Brampston Houblon-Archer (alias Brigadier Eyre) of Great Hallingbury as a gift from Ezra and Eliza Eyre. When it became a hazard to traffic, it was moved to Castle Gardens. In 1913, the shop on the right sold R White's lemonade, which was manufactured in Walkern.
