More about The Cross Keys

This pub would ideally suit an experienced couple in a food led operation. 

The Cross Keys needs to be focused on serving good quality food with excellent customer service. Previously run as a Wadworth Managed house, there is a fantastic opportunity for the successful applicant to develop a quality food and drink offer. We would expect to see a split of 40% wet, 60% food at this site. 

New Eastern Villages Development
With around 8,000 new homes envisioned in total, the New Eastern Villages is one of the biggest green field developments of its type in the UK. The land allocated for the development lies east of the A419 primary route (South Marston to the Commonhead Roundabout) and just North of Wanborough.
Redlands Grove, which forms part of the New Eastern Villages development and is one of the more southerly of the expansion villages, lies just 0.5 miles from the Cross Keys, where 370 homes and a Primary School are currently being built.
