Passing a very fine Town Hall we reached the end of a remarkably handsome bridge, which unites Southtown to Yarmouth.  We then turned to our right through some narrow roads; and having crossed a broad street, we found ourselves in an open space in front of the Church of Saint Nicholas, one of the largest parish churches in the kingdom.  Turning back and passing the fine Fisherman's Hospital, we entered the market-place, which occupies nearly three acres of land.  About the centre of the market-place there are some smooth stones in the form of a cross, which mark the spot where the town cross once stood.  It was formerly adorned with the pillory and stocks, but they have long disappeared.  The freemen of the town have the right of selling here free, with one stall.  At the north end of the market is an avenue of lime-trees, which adds to its pleasant foreign appearance.  In the yard of the Fisherman's Hospital we saw a figure of Charity; and the cupola above is adorned by a statue of the Apostle Peter, who, in former days, was looked upon as the patron of fishermen.
