These must be near the Old State House, right? That’s where Ms. Young, the first witch hanged in the colonies, at least is “believed” to have been hanged when it was the town square. Or am I getting my witch lynchings confused?

Plot twist: You’d think these bricks would be where the gallows were, but they aren’t. BUT their location is VERY relevant in a different way and I am very pleased to have finally noticed them.
