Repton - The Cross and former Mitre Inn |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Like many buildings in the village, the old Mitre Inn is now
used by Repton School. How much of the old Mitre remains is of
course open to conjecture. This is a very solid building with a
fine combination of brick and stone and I would guess that it is
of 1870-80. As can be seen in this photograph, The Cross was outside
the Mitre Inn and it was from here that many goods were traded
at a regular market. It was also the site of the Michaelmas
statutes at which the hiring of servants was conducted. |
