NOTES: James Ayton Symington was the illustrator of county guides and children's books, and this particular topographical drawing is one one of a number drawn between 1890 and 1897 depicting English market places. The drawings were probably intended as illustrations for a book or article but were possibly never published. Ripon 'New' Square's obelisk was designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor in around 1702.
