- Welcome for Engine Common

Very close to Engine Common, Winterbourne is mentioned in the Domesday Book, with the following information: In SVINHEVE HD.erant T.R.E.ad firma.XXXVI.hidae in
BETVNE.cu.II.membris Wapelei 7 Wintreborne.
In dnio erant.v.car.7 XLI.uills.7 XXIX.bord.cu.XLV.car.
Ibi.XVIII.ferui.cu.I.molino.
Hoc M T.R.E.reddeb firma uni noctis.7.m fimilit facit.
For those not fluent in the language of the time, this can be translated as:
In SWINEHEAD Hundred
in the time of King Edward there were in the revenue 36 hides in BITTON,
with its two members, WAPLEY and WINTERBOURNE.
In lordship there were 5 ploughs; 41 villagers and 29 smallholders with 45 ploughs.
18 slaves with 1 mill.
In the time of King Edward this manor paid one night's revenue; now it does likewise
Things have changed a bit round here since then, but traditional British values remain predominant at the Swan where you are assured of a warm welcome, great food served in a friendly atmosphere and a wide range of beers, wines and spirits for you to enjoy. Soft drinks and coffee are always available and there is a children's menu for the younger diners in your party.
Talking of parties, the Swan is a great place to hold one, why not bring your friends and family here for celebrations. That way, you can leave the cooking, and more importantly the clearing up to us.

Photo from Featured Project near The pub sign on the main road lets you know where you are Having rebranded the pub's restaurant as the Smokehouse Saloon some time ago, our customers have been enjoying the best of Old Western food with authentic American flavours at the Swan.
The Old West was famous for smokey flavours, great steaks and ribs, and you will find that this ethos has been carried through faithfully at the Swan. Great food, great times and great company - hell yeah!
