The Swan

We’re a canal side pub.

Reknowned for our location being where the Trent, Mersey and Coventry canal converge. A 10 minute drive from from Lichfield and 15 minutes from Burton On Trent. 5 minutes for the A38 Our popular Grade II listed pub, known locally as the 'Mucky Duck' dates back to the late 18th century and overlooks the Trent & Mersey Canal & Coventry Canal junction. Our seating area is split into a Bar and Lounge area that wraps around the bar itself. We also offer further seating in our cellar bar, which can be hired out for functions. We have a large outside space with plenty of seating, most of which is situated on the canal.
