Many of the villages in Hertfordshire would have
stocks (see
Early Crime and Punishment).
Bishop Stortford Museum has kindly provided the following picture of the stocks that formerly stood in
Thorley churchyard.
The stocks at
Aldbury still survive in the open air - but time has taken it toll. Do you know of any other Hertfordshire stocks that can still be seen - preferably in their original location?
