The Swan Inn is an eighteenth century malt house set on the river front close to the heart of Ironbridge. It was an Inn when Abraham Darby was building the Bridge and as such it is rumored that site meetings were held at The Swan from time to time.Our 8 eight individually styled rooms and private suite ooze character many with period features such as the original beams. One even has a glass floor to show the original maltings which were rediscovered during renovations in the late 1980s. Most have stunning views of the River Severn and are all beautifully decorated comfortable and convenient for the delights of the Ironbridge Gorge. If you are brave enough try staying in room 5 where several people have reported strange goings on in the night. Just ask the staff. They love to talk about it!With our busy bar and restaurant serving delicious home-cooked local food and our friendly staff on hand to assist you we are sure you will find The Swan a relaxing and enjoyable place from which to explore the local area. Please note Ironbridge really comes alive at weekends in the evening. There are lots of people out and about using all the pubs and having a meal or a drink and a good time. If that sounds like your sort of thing come and join us. If not you may have a more comfortable stay at one of the BandBS away from the wharfage (the road that fromts the river). Have a great stay!!
