Description
The Swan Hotel is an 18th-century building of red brick with grey headers laid alternately. It has a hipped tiled roof and five windows. The three central window bays project, featuring a recessed string course and a moulded eaves cornice. A parapet rises above the central portion, ramping up to meet it. The windows retain their original glazing bars on the first floor only.
