The Old Swan

The earliest map of Uttoxeter, drawn in 1629, records that the home of Peter Lightfoot, a local man of letters, stood on this site. Lightfoot's house had previously been the Old Swan inn.

Alongside was another timber-framed building, owned and occupied by Thomas Salt, which stood, at least partly, on this site.

This is the nearest JDW pub to Alton Towers and there are regular bus services from here to the theme park from the main line station.

The pub is also very close to Uttoxeter race course and several campsites are located close by. It is also only 12 miles from Ashbourne, The Peak district national park and Dovedale.

There are also weekly farmers markets in the town.
