The Pump House, Swansea
One worthy representative of Victorian architecture in Swansea is the old Pump House. This building, which naturally possesses historical and architectural interest, was given Grade II listed status in 1987. Its original purpose was to serve as a pumping station, but through time, its designation changed. Today it is a pub, which doesn’t attract its customers strictly through varied drinks and menu, but also thanks to the Victorian brickwork and aluminum work with industrial touches.
