English: Meldreth: Village Stocks and Whipping Post, near to Meldreth, Cambridgeshire, Great Britain.
Nearly hidden at the base of this magnificent horse chestnut tree and only just visible as four holes immediately to the right of the tree trunk are the village stocks. These are surprisingly mentioned on the Ordnance Survey 1:10,000 scale mapping along with the whipping post. The base of the whipping post can be seen just to the right of the stocks. The triangular area is known as Marvell's Green and is at the junction of three roads, the High Street, Fenny Lane and North End.
