Cross Keys Inn, Cautley, Cumbria - Pictorial Pub Signs on Waymarking.com

The history of this building starts in 1619, when it was called High Hayarth and was a farm. Later Gervase Benson, prominent Quaker and mayor of Kendal, owned High Haygarth. When the turnpike passed outside the door around 1819, it became the Cross Keys Inn. One night the landlord escorting a patron home fell in the river Rawthey and drowned. The building was auctioned in Sedbergh in 1902 and the subsequent owner made it a Temperance Inn. It still is.

Now owned by National Trust and run as a small hotel and restaurant by current tenant, a Quaker.
