SOMERSET - Bath, Long Acre Tavern Deleted from the National Inventory Long Acre, Bath, BA1 5NL Tel: 01225 313729 Public Transport: Railway Station: Bath Listed Status: Not listed CURRENTLY CLOSED. It might seem surprising but this pub is a great rarity - an intact rebuild from the 1960s fitted out in contemporary style. It has none of the glitz and glitter that we associate with great Victorian pubs, nor the suave sleekness of the best interwar work. Yet this is the sort of thing they were putting up in the 1950s and '60s and, though quite recent, incredibly few complete schemes survive (another example is the Laurieston Bar, Glasgow). Outside, the depressed triangular heads to the windows are redolent of the '60s. There are two rooms with a servery in between, all with original fittings. Note especially the Scandinavian-inspired light wood open beams. Pub is currently 'For Let'. |
