More about this scene
Originally there were three Broughs, and this view shows what is properly known as Market Brough. Church Brough is clustered around the parish church of St Michael, and there is also an area of the town known as Brough Sowerby. The Market Cross shown here marks the site of the market which grew up around the 14th-century bridge which crosses Swindale Beck.
