In 1787 this pub was To Let, then in 1791 it was demolished and a new house built with brewhouse, which continued with the name of Kings Arms. In 1830 the pub was owned by Wheatley's Charity and the tenant was John Byrne, who had a seven year lease for a messuage, brewhouse, yard and premises known by the sign of the Kings Arms. This became the QUEENS ARMS, 18 Cross Cheaping, apparently at the accession of Victoria. Photo

The arms shown depend on the monarch the artist had in mind - a declaration of loyalty.
