Saxon Square - the centre of all things shopping in Christchurch! The land here stood behind the Town Hall and housed a technical school which was later used to hold the council chamber. Before that, in the 14th Century, a house called Hookey's House stood on this spot - owned by Samuel Hookey (aka the Wicked Man of Wick) who was both a smuggler and Mayor of Christchurch! This was all pulled down in the 1970s and 80s to make way for Saxon Square.
