Description
The Longs Pub is a three-storey Grade II listed establishment, distinct with its stone elevations and classic clay tiled roof. It includes a modern extension that harmonises with the historical architecture. This blend of traditional charm and contemporary adaptation makes the pub a significant and attractive landmark in the local landscape.

Accommodation
The Longs Pub is spread over the ground and two upper floors, each distinctively designed for specific functions.

Ground Floor
The pub presents a welcoming bar and restaurant area on the ground floor, accommodating approximately 65 covers and additional bar stools centred around a characterful log burner. This central area is complemented by a series of essential facilities, including male and female, and disabled toilets located at the rear, ensuring accessibility for all guests. The ground floor also features a notable ceiling height of 3 meters, adding to the spacious atmosphere. Operational areas on this level include a new cellar adjacent to the dining room, a fully equipped kitchen, a pot wash area, and two offices. The staff accommodation is accessible via a staircase behind the pot wash area.

First Floor
The first floor has been recently refurbished to provide comfortable staff accommodation, consisting of two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a kitchen/living area, all fitted with new carpeting. The design and layout of this floor have been thoughtfully updated to offer a modern living space.

Second Floor
The second floor is currently utilised as a storage area. Despite its lower ceiling, it holds the potential for further conversion into additional bedrooms and a small lounge area, offering flexibility for future use.

External
Externally, the pub features outdoor seating, adding to the establishment's curb appeal. At the rear, there is a large trade garden area which includes a substantial function room, ideal for hosting events. Additionally, the property encompasses a derelict but dilapidated barn building which has conversion potential and a barn which has been converted into a prep kitchen, further enhancing the pub's operational capabilities.

Planning
The property is Grade II Listed but is not situated within a conservation area. The Long Arms site at High Street, Steeple Ashton, Wiltshire, BA14 6EU, was involved in two planning applications. The first, Application Reference PL/2023/02642, sought listed building consent to replace a derelict, curtilage-listed former stables building with a timber-clad storage barn, but this was withdrawn by the applicant on 09/06/2023. The second application, Reference 19/04447/FUL, which was granted full planning permission on 31 July 2019, involved the extension of the public house and alteration works to form letting bedrooms.

EPC
