Swan Street is part of the B3051 road which is mostly a rural B-road, mostly in north Hampshire.
It starts in the narrow streets of Overton at traffic lights with the B3400 and heads in a northerly direction, crossing the main West of England Main Line near Overton Station. It continues along a hilly road, including a summit at White Hill, with no more villages until Kingsclere is reached.
The B3051 passes through the village of Kingsclere and crosses the A339 bypass by a staggered crossroads. It then climbs Little Knowl Hill to the village of Ashford Hill, where it descends and turns easterly to Brimpton Common, entering Berkshire en route.
A straight road follows until the B3051 terminates at Heath End at a roundabout on the A340.
Kingsclere is a large village and civil parish situated between Newbury and Basingstoke. It is located in a rural setting, surrounded by chalk hills, natural springs, and open farmland. Kingsclere has a rich history, with its origins potentially traceable back to King Alfred's time (between 872 and 888 AD), and the name "clere" possibly meaning "bright" or "clearing". It was historically part of the Crown's ancient demesne (a piece of land attached to a manor). St Mary's Church is a Norman church (12th century) known for its interesting features, including the "Bed Bug" weather vane. Kingsclere Park is a business park with high-quality self-contained business units in a rural setting. Kingsclere Stables is a renowned horse racing stable with a long history in the sport, associated with the Balding family.
