Market Cross House, Grade II listed building on High Street, Windsor, England
Market Cross House stands as a three-story commercial structure with bay windows at both front and back, displaying a notable tilt in its construction.
Built in 1592 near Windsor's meat market square, the building was demolished and reconstructed in 1687 using green oak, which caused its current slanted shape.
The property represents traditional English commercial architecture and serves as a testament to Windsor's preservation of historical structures through Grade II listing status.
Located in Windsor's central business district, the building maintains its commercial function while allowing visitors to examine its architectural features from the street.
A tunnel beneath the building creates an underground connection to Windsor Castle, reportedly used by King Charles II for private meetings.
