The old pub was a fan favourite watering hole before and after games for Swansea supporters for a number of years.

It was located just a stones throw away from Vetch Field where the Swans used to play their home fixtures until 2005 when they moved to the Liberty Stadium.

It was also well known for its live music and operated as a hotel which regularly hosted familiar faces from the world of theatre due to its proximity to Swansea Grand Theatre.

Those who loved the pub were disappointed to learn that it was closing its doors for good back in 2019 and they will now have to say goodbye again following the proposed works to make it into flats.

And fans have reacted to the news that the historic venue will no longer be a part of their lives.

One said: “Another piece of Swansea history going.”

Another added: “Sad. Used to go there 40 years ago, before and after Swans home game.”

A third said: “The good old days. Swansea pub life is practically gone now.”
