This pub opened about 1767 and closed in 1850 - it would have been about where the grilled door is on the right, i.e. about 50 yards west of Swan Road. In 1828 a beer house opened opposite the pub and when the pub closed it took over its name. This one closed 1895. The grilled and blue door is part of Charles Hay & Co at number 135. Building on the left is Seaford House of the Swan Estate and in the background can be seen the spire of St Marys Church.
