The Swan Inn, Darwen

Marked as closed.

This is a high-ceilinged corner pub, typical of Victorian design. It even boasts a rather fine tiled mural of what appears to be a local river scene, and which is certainly one of the pub's original features. As you might expect with a pub of this name, there is a lot of nautical paraphernalia adorning the walls, including some model ships. They had Deuchars IPA, Adnam's Bitter and spitfire on. The Deuchars was £3.10 a pint, but tasted just fine. I rather like this pub as it has a traditional feel to it, and in my view is definitely worth a visit if you are in the London Bridge area.

The Swan Inn is now closed and is now used as living accomodation [Admin edit: Marked as closed 6/3/10]
