HISTORY

Much More Than Your Regular Pub

Ye Olde Swan is situated in a stunning location aside the River Thames at Radcot Bridge. Originally an old packhorse bridge on the main wool export route from Northampton to Southampton, the bridge claims to be the oldest crossing of the Thames!

It was built around 1200, and Ye Olde Swan has been a stopping off point for weary shepherds and travellers for hundreds of years to enjoy fine ales and good food.

Nothing has changed, though the sheep have long since disappeared...

Now lovingly run and restored by Alan and Janine, Ye Olde Swan is full of history and character.
