The two Sandbach Crosses — standing in the market square since the 9th century — are among the finest examples of Anglo-Saxon stone carving in England. The crosses were damaged during the Civil War and the fragments reassembled in 1816. The town has been a coaching stop since medieval times.
The Saxon crosses in the market square are genuinely extraordinary — among England's finest medieval stone carvings. The market for local Cheshire produce. The town centre for good independent shopping.
