The Cross Well, Linlithgow

The fountain is a replica of its 16th-century predecessor which was damaged by Cromwell's occupation forces in 1650. It was built in 1807 and carved by Robert Gray, a one-handed stonemason from Edinburgh, who worked with the mallet strapped to his right stump. It was modelled on the courtyard fountain of Linlithgow Palace, but the figures here represent burgesses unlike the heraldic and more courtly figures of the palace fountain. It was restored in 1997. The town's mercat cross, erected in the 1660s, was demolished at the end of the following century.
