George & Dragon Hotel
During the 19th century, the Cross located in close proximity to Delamere Street served a significant role in maintaining law and order. It functioned as a temporary holding area for individuals who had been apprehended for various offenses such as public intoxication, theft, and fraudulent activities. These individuals would be detained at the Cross until they could be brought before the local magistrate's court. This court was conveniently situated at the George and Dragon, a notable establishment of the time. This practice ensured that offenders were kept in check and due process was followed, reflecting the community's commitment to uphold justice and societal norms.
