Former "White Swan Inn", Wigton - May 2017
Probably mid-19th Century, the "White Swan's" claim to fame is that it was the last pub acquired by the State Management Scheme - in March 1921, over two years after the end of World War I.
Sold back to the private sector in 1973 for £6,000, it closed some years ago. Recently a "Youth Station" for children and young people, its present use and future are uncertain.

View of High Street from the Memorial Fountain
The yellow building on the right, now a Chinese takeaway, was formerly the King's Head Inn. It originally had a gallery projecting over the street, and is one of Wigton's oldest buildings (information from "Wigton through time", T.Grahamslaw 2010 http://www.amberleybooks.com/shop/article_9781848688063/Wigton-Through-Time%3CBR%3E%3CI%3ETrevor-Grahamslaw%3C_I%3E.html?shop_param=cid%3D16%26aid%3D9781848688063%26 ).

The Lion, High Street, Wigton - June 2017
Also known at various times as the "Lion & Lamb" and the "Lion & Lamb Hotel", this late 18th Century Grade II listed pub escaped the grasp of the State Management Scheme - perhaps persuading Scheme officials it was a "hotel" with no public bar!
