Where were the town stocks?

I RECENTLY found the following report in Woolmer?s Exeter & Plymouh Gazette dated 5 August 1864:

?On Thursday, the 28th ult., William Racket, of East Street, Okehampton, was charged with being drunk and incapable of taking care of himself on the previous night. After being admonished he was ordered to pay the expenses, amounting to 5s 6d., which he refused to do, and in default was put in the stocks for three hours. The stocks have not been used in this town for the last 23 years, and it may naturally be supposed, therefore, that his position caused considerable excitement and uproar.?

Many readers will be familiar with the stocks at Belstone, but does anyone know where the Okehampton stocks were and what became of them? And I wonder what happened in 1841?
