Description
The White Swan Public House and attached carriage arch is a public house with origins dating back to the 17th century, which was partly reconstructed in the early to mid-19th century. It is constructed from finely squared and coursed limestone and features a Collyweston slate roof. The building originally had a three-unit plan with a central cross wing and is two storeys high with an attic.
The façade has a three-window range, with a gabled cross-wing at the center. The first floor features a four-light, ovolo-moulded stone mullion window with king mullions in the center, and a similar three-light window in the attic above. The ground floor of the cross-wing has two likely 16th-century re-used, two-light stone mullion windows with arch-head lights, deep reveals, and hood moulds with square label stops. The flanking bays also have similar three-light windows on both the ground and first floors. The original center doorway is now blocked, with a 20th-century door located to the far right. The building has ashlar quoins at all corners and an ashlar stack at the ridge.
To the left, there is a 19th-century single-storey range that includes a blocked arch with a four-centred head on the left and a roofed carriage arch on the right. The rear elevation is similar to the front, featuring a lateral ashlar stack. Inside, the building has chamfered and hollow moulded beams, a fireplace with a four-centred arch-head, and a staircase with turned balusters in the style of the 17th century.
