Stocks and whiping-post, Aldbury, from a photo by A. Whitford Anderson, Esq., Watford.

A half-timbered house, probably Tudor, beside a pond; in the foreground are wooden stocks, with the somewhat unevenly placed holes just visible, and one post higher so as to be used as a whipping post.

Hertfordshire Geneaology has another similar picture. Today Aldbury is part of the Borough of Dacorum. The stocks and whipping-post are still there, but not as complete.
