The equestrian statue of Charles I in Charing Cross London is a work by the French sculptor Hubert Le Sueur probably cast in 1633. Its location at Charing Cross is on the former site of the most elaborate of the Eleanor crosses erected by Edward I which had stood for three and a half centuries until 1647. It also marks the official centre of London and the point to and from which many distances to and from London are measured.
