Quiet on my visit. Friendly service but the Hobgoblin Gold was only just drinkable. Better options up the road!

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about White Swan

Tidy-looking Banks's house, with a refurbished 'L'-shaped and partly split-level interior. Semi-modern furniture but relatively little in the way of decor. Limited food offers. Pool table. Unfortunately, there were just two ciders - Rosie's Pig and Old Rosie - available from the five handpumps when I visited, with the Cocker Hoop having just gone off and another reversed Jennings clip noted. Mind you, I quite enjoyed my pint of keg Dark Mild (£2.20).

This is a large pub, modern exterior that tries to echo the traditional look, with new Banks's etched windows and an undressed brick facade.

Inside, whilst the bar serving area itself looks quite traditional, the pub decor is modern. It has two rooms, a dining lounge and an open plan bar/lounge, with high stools, some white leather seating (unstained as yet), sofas, brown and red (at last a different colour), red and white plain walls and a mix of carpet and wood flooring. There was a pool table, Sky TV, with the fishing channel on! and subdued music. Service was friendly and the clientele small, but mixed. I returned here and tried the food, it was so-so at best.

Beer; usual stuff, with Banks's MILD, Pedigree and Jennings Cocker-Hoop on handpull, with Banks's Dark MILD on keg, which was very good.

I am not a modern decor fan, but this place was ok to me and the beer choice, with the Dark MILD, as a regular, was good. With the Waggon near enough next door, i will be back in here
