Description
Swan House is a house, formerly a public house, dating to the late 17th or early 18th century, with 20th-century renovations. It is timber-framed and plastered, with a thatched roof featuring an end stack on the right hand side and a red brick ridge stack, the upper courses of which have been rebuilt. The house has two storeys and a three-unit lobby entry plan, with an outshut to the left-hand gable. It has four ground floor and three first floor casement windows, all dating to the 20th century, and a 20th-century door. A leaded light casement window in the outshut is inscribed and dated 1766. The interior includes a rebuilt hearth, exposed floor frames and timber framing, and some 18th-century plank doors.
