THE VENUES

The Location of the venues can be seen at http://www.virtualswanage.co.uk/maps/map.htm courtesy of Virtual Swanage.

Starting from the pier, walk along the High Street. The first venue is the White Horse (11 High St), then the Purbeck Hotel (19), Ship Inn (23a), White Swan (The Square), Anchor (30), Red Lion (63), Moonlight Bistro (67), Black Swan (159) and Royal Oak (417).

The Barking Frog is 37 Station Road, about halfway between Swanage railway station and the Mowlem Theatre. You can get there from the High Street via Institute Road and turn left, or Kings Road East and turn right and right again.

The Crow’s Nest is a mile from the town centre and a taxi costs around £4 total for four people from town centre. Along the bay, bear left up the short hill and it’s number 11 Ulwell Road. Turn right off Ulwell Road into Burlington Road and the Grand Hotel is on the right.

The Bankes Arms Hotel, East Street, Corfe Castle is in the village of Corfe Castle, just under five miles from Swanage and about the same distance from Wareham. The Swanage Railway runs there from Swanage.
