Another one bites the dust?

It looks like The White Swan pub in Hyde Street has closed. I have been in the pub a few times as it is not far from where I live, but I don't think it was as popular as some of the other pubs in Hyde, such as The King Alfred and the Hyde Tavern. Maybe it will re-open, as The Willow Tree has?

    Let's hope it does. It's a nice looking boozer.

    It is a nice looking building, luckily it is listed so it should not suffer the fate that many of our historic pubs have. I am not much of a drinker but I do feel a little sad whenever I pass a pub that has closed and this is happening far too often.

    I never went there - but whenever I see that another pub has closed, it always makes me feel horribly guilty that I didn't. We always try to get to as many pubs in the area as we can when we move, just to see what they are like.

    I didn't realise it had closed. I used to go there with my man-friend (now an ex!) every week until last year. In fact it was in there that he told me his wife had found out about us! He had never told me he was married until then.

    At least he can't take anyone else there now, and lie to them. Have a virtual hug.
