It definitely looks like on a corner, so I don't think it can be that White Swan, Therem is a Wgite Swan on the corner of Lombard St and Bradford Street. It is now brick and totally unlike the photo, but, this was built in 1899, and there was a beerhouse on the site previously, though do not know the name of what it looked like
mike i cant see a pub on the corner of lombard st and bradford st

mike ive looked again at the globe hanging outside of the pub and it does says the white something but its hard to tell if if it says swan...it could be horse...definately looks to be on a corner but it could be anywhere really

An aerial view (1951) of The White Swan on the corner of Hanley Street and Cecil Street.
Interesting to see the roof of 42-44 Hanley Street being retiled/replaced.
