Looking for a new investment? One of Britain’s ‘toughest pubs’ is hitting the auction block! The Wyndham Arms in Merthyr Tydfil, known for its rugged past and infamous clientele including boxers and former miners, is now seeking a brighter future. This corner pub has its share of tales, once even spotlighted on Sky TV’s ‘The Toughest Pubs in Britain’. Recently closed due to unlawful activities, it’s now ready for a fresh start.
The Wyndham Arms comes with a fascinating history wrapped up in its walls, from being a favourite watering hole for the town’s hard workers to its more complicated recent chapters. Despite its closure earlier this year due to some shady dealings, there’s potential on the horizon. The Victorian building boasts a main bar, lounge, cellar, toilets, and flats, all perched in a prime location.
Auctioneer Paul Fosh explains: Work has begun on converting the upstairs area, with plans for a two-bedroom flat and a separate one-bedroom flat in place. With a guide price of £138,000, this property is brimming with opportunity for those eager to turn a new page in this historical pub’s story.
Set in bustling Merthyr Tydfil, connected by road to Cardiff and the Brecon Beacons, its convenient location only adds to its appeal. Whether you’re an aspiring landlord, a renovation enthusiast, or a property investor, the Wyndham Arms may be just the project you’ve been waiting for.
