This Chelsea landmark close to the river, sister to The Artesian Well, can trace its history back to 1765 and names many of Chelsea's famous residents among its regulars. Well known visitors from the past who've supped a pint here include poets Dante Gabriel Rossetti and Dylan Thomas. There's a continuing artistic theme thanks to co-owner and sculptor Rudy Weller, who created The Horses of Helios & The Three Graces, prominently positioned in Piccadilly Circus. He's also the man responsible for the 'Three Synchronised Divers' leaping from the roof of the Criterion Building above. For The Cross Keys he's created a "magical kingdom" throughout the four rooms: the bar, the conservatory restaurant, gallery and a room at the top. The decor and relief sculptures are inspired by the pub's name. It's a common one among pubs and comes from a Christian sign, symbolizing the keys which Jesus gave to St Peter, so that he could enter the Kingdom of Heaven.The Cross Keys images
