The Swan, Kingston Upon Thames

I used to go to The Swan in the 90's and would say that it used to be a great pub for both drink and atmosphere. Chris and maureen used to run the place and along with the drink the food used to be a bit of an attraction particularly the Sunday roasts! the pub was frequented by a range of punters from University delinquents to the darts, pool an football teams. Joan and her husband Graham used to run the football team and many a found memory I have of that too.
I have may found memories of The Swan from Uni days to afterwards when working down there - I should have stayed - I once dreamt of running the place! Who knows maybe I'll return one day! I hear that the place is now boarded up and shut down - what a shame. I would love to bring it back to life again!
