A modern type pub / restaurant which opened in South Wales in the early 1980s, and closed approximately 30 years later in c2012.

Like every other explore, I was eager to get in and take a look at the place, but like so many other times was surprised and saddened of how trashed it was. Saying that, there were many great features still around to make it worth our while (especially the slides in the kids area!). Visited with Jon6D and one other on a full day out to tick a few more off the list!

Hope you enjoy the photos....

Nice work there, I think your find it was before the 90s as I used to pick people up in a taxi/minibus from there in mid 80s. Also had the police search the garage I work in and my house for the missing corner Lion, naked eye and mockingbird still take the piss now.

Thank you for your comment & info on the place (will edit my write up shortly!) - really struggled to get the opening date of the pub so went with a statement I found on another forum. So thanks again buddy, and hope the Police leave you alone soon!!!
 
It's still quite nice.don't look too trashed..was talking to someone about this today..so might add it to my list for a little tour later.some nice shots there
 
Wow, that's actually pretty good, most pubs get trashed within minutes of closing!
Nicely lit, thanks for sharing :)

Thanks a lot - the upstairs/function room seem to be fairing far better than the dining area / bar downstairs at the moment. But the living quarters was so trashed there was no point taking any photos at all..... but yes, lots of features in the pub hanging on in there!
