Altre informazioni:
Easter market at the Shire Hall, Market Hill, Woodbridge, Suffolk, England. The building dates from 1575 and was erected by Thomas Seckford (Sekford) Master of the Court of Requests to Queen Elizabeth I. The Flemish gable end was added in the 17th century. Seckford was sold land in the town and became a major benefactor due to his strong religious views and compassion towards the needy. Woodbridge contains many buildings that owe their existence to him such as the old hospital, almshouses and his wealth via the Seckford Foundation continues to benefit the town. The Shire Hall became a Magistrates Court and was bought by the council in 1984.
