Pray to god it doesn ' t happen but if this situation happens , you did your job . What they do is their decision , you are paid to sell alchohol to legal and presentable adults . <| sep |> The great fire of Northampton happened in 1675 there is a memorial plaque to it between college street and sol central in what was st Katherine ' s Churchyard It destroyed most of the middle of town , many of the locals escaped the fire by going through the welsh house , you can still see that in the corner of the market place the white plaque above the window of what is now Zapato Lounge , next to the entrance to the Grosvener centre , opposite New Look . After the firs King Charles II actually donated woof from Salcey Forest on the Newport Pagnell road to rebuild town , and it is a statue of him that stands on the front of All Saints Church to remember this . Yes of course ! There ' s a great bit in the museum in town centre bout this , too , don ' t know how it slipped my mind ! We had the third university in the country , after Oxford and Cambridge . And it was so good that it was threatening to Oxford , Henry III dissolved the university in 1265 , and signed a Royal Decree that banned a new university being created in Northampton . When the college wanted to become a University they had to appeal to the Privy Council to have the Royal Decree overturned . Now this I didn ' t know , so TIL , thanks !
