More about this scene
This photograph was taken 2 years before the famous statue of King Alfred was erected in the middle of the road, commemorating the 1000th anniversary of his death - albeit belatedly, as he died in AD 899! The fair on St Giles Hill was one of the largest in Europe, attracting many traders.
