Demolished. The pub stood on the corner of Princes St and Cecilia Street; the latter being somewhat foreshortened today.

After closure, the license seems to have been transferred to the Sporting Farmer (now the Drum & Monkey).

A report in the Ipswich Journal** on Aug-05 in 1871 when Issac Norman was the landlord states that :

"Mayhew (landlord of the Marsh Tavern and cab propretor) was charged with receiving stolen horse feed from a Samuel Mealing. Mealing was seen frequently carrying a sack into Mayhews public house by the landlord of the Old Marsh Tavern and Issac Norman (landlord of the Three Swans). Mayhew was found guilty and sentenced to 12 months hard labour."
