The town's medieval market cross was moved to its current site in the town square in 1888, when the road it stood on was widened.
Text 2
Photographs from the 1870s show the market cross a hundred metres from where it now stands, in the middle of what is now the high street.
Based on the texts, the authors of Text 1 and Text 2 would most likely agree on which point?
- A. The market cross has not always stood in the town square.Correct
- B. The market cross was built in 1888.
- C. The high street has never been widened.
- D. The photographs are fakes.

- 1888 is when it was moved, and Text 2's 1870s photographs show it already existed.
- C. The high street has never been widened.
- Text 1 says the road was widened.
- D. The photographs are fakes.
- Neither text doubts the photographs.
