Now a shopping precinct this building dates back to the 15th Century with examples of wattle and daub just inside the building on the right hand side. The building was remodelled in the early 19th century when it became the "Cross Key's Coaching Inn" serving the Ruthin to Chester route with a change of horses in Mold and last licensed in 1905. It later became a temperance commercial hotel and was home to one of the three Ruthin Friendly Societies which were groups of male workers of similar background who contributed small amounts of money on a weekly basis for insurance against injury and old age. At a later date it was the offices of Ruthin Rural District Council.

The official hangman, Sam Burrows, stayed here in 1824 for several nights to prepare for the execution of an Irish highwayman, John Connor.
