The Ewe and Lamb, Hanley Swan
Once a lovely and ancient pub. Alas no more; much of the land has gone over to new development and someone has gained a wonderful timber framed home. The green has been retained as an open space by the parish council.

Gambolling lambs
Just like children at school, lambs when they are a week or so old form gangs and run, hop and skip around.

Summer must be here!
According to folklore "When you can put your foot on seven English daisies, summer is come". Not sure if summer's here yet but certainly this early bank holiday weekend has been the warmest since the May holiday began in 1978. These daisies are on the verge beside the road in Hanley Swan.

Road to Picken End
Leading eastward off from the Welland Road. This is now a dead end, but footpaths continue what may have been old routeways. "End"s are common around this part of Worcestershire. There are several in the Hanley Swan area, each representing a hamlet sized area of dwellings within the disbursed community. There are Gilbert's End, Robert's End, Haylers end and Blackmore End all within a mile.
