Mart Yard

The yard or playground of Boston Grammar School was historically called the Mart Yard, after the annual Beast Mart which took place on it. Today the original use of the yard is commemorated by an annual ceremony on or around 10 December in which the Mayor asks the headmaster to grant the students a half-day holiday.
