The name Seven Ways is thought to originate from the convergence of seven ancient routes that once went on to Bristol, Gloucester and London. However, the pub was failing to stay afloat and became a community asset in recent years. Sadly, that too did not survive and the site was sold off in 2012 to be converted into flats. It was pretty much gutted and rebuilt from a shell. In the beginning it was a pub called the Swan, being built as the area was being developed in the nineteenth century.
