Swan Inn

The pub, a historical landmark in the town, boasts a rich history spanning over three centuries. Originally constructed as a farmhouse, this building has served various roles over the years, including a prison and a temporary morgue. Towards the end of the 18th Century, it was transformed into an inn, and by the early 19th Century, it had become the chosen meeting place for the Town Council. Today, the pub is situated in a pedestrian-friendly area and is known for its lively atmosphere. It features a cozy beer garden at the rear, providing a sheltered spot for patrons to relax and socialize. Additionally, the pub occasionally hosts live music events in the evenings, adding to its vibrant ambiance. Interestingly, local lore suggests that the pub may be haunted, adding a touch of intrigue to its long-standing history. Despite its past, or perhaps because of it, the pub continues to be a popular gathering spot for both locals and visitors alike.
