The Swan (1), Waters Upton near Telford, Shropshire
Another currently closed public house on the A442 road. This has a sign saying it is for sale. Early in 2012 there had been a planning application for residential units on the car park and garden of the pub, which the Parish Council strongly objected to. The outline application was refused in September 2012. The pub had previously closed in 2007, then reopened, but appears to have closed again by the time of the planning application.

The Swan (3) - sign, Waters Upton near Telford, Shropshire
In times past when many people couldn't read, inn and pub signs needed to contain a subject that was easy to illustrate and to recognise. The swan or often the white swan became a popular name as a result. It was also associated with innocence and with royalty.
