Today Cross Keys Street, back in the 1800s, simply Cross Street [1]. This is one of Manchester's lesser known streets and it's named after the pub that used to stand on it. Third door down Cross (Keys) Street off Swan Street was the Cross Keys Inn, putting it where the low-rise building starts on the above shot.
