The renovation project encompassed the introduction of improved modern and contemporary décor, as well as a bigger interior footprint to provide more seating, larger toilets and smoking facilities.
The main entrance, previously located at the front of the pub, was moved to the back of the building providing improved access directly from the car park. The old entrance was still accessible but was treated as more of a side door, adjacent to the purpose built smoking shelter which was created to discourage people from smoking in entrance doorways.
Opened in 2010, the refurbished and restructured Black Swan is now a bustling pub like it once was.
