Address

Elephant & Castle, 1 High Street, Dawley, (incorporating Nos. 16 &17 Burton Street), Telford, Shropshire, TF4 2ET.

Location

The property is located in the small town of Dawley, which forms part of Telford New Town, being one of the oldest settlements in Shropshire. Telford Town Centre is approximately 2 miles to the northeast. Dawley has undergone significant regeneration in recent years, including improvements to the High Street and the provision of a sports and learning community centre at Paddock Mount.

The property is situated within the heart of the town at the head of the High Street. The latter is home to a number of both local and national retailers including Lloyds Pharmacy and a Tesco supermarket. The property enjoys a prominent position with frontages onto both High Street and Burton Street.

Description

The property comprises a public house and premises, which formerly traded as the E&C along with Nos. 16 & 17 Burton Street. It was acquired by the present owners in 2010 and, following a complete refurbishment, was reopened in the summer of 201

The building consists of an end terrace, two-storey Grade II listed structure with two substantial basements on a self-contained site of approximately 0.17 acres (0.069 hectares). The main pedestrian access is to the front of the building, with further accesses to the side and rear. Vehicular access and private parking is provided to the side (George Street) leading to the rear of the building.

Internally, the accommodation consists of an open trading bar on the ground floor, together with customer WC facilities, stores and a former brewery area. There is also a separate function room with its own access off Burton Street, which may afford the opportunity to trade independently of the main business areas.

On the first floor there is larger function room (approx. 60 person) with its own bar and toilets and access via a separate staircase.

Also on the first floor is well presented, 5-bedroom living accommodation, currently laid out as 4 rooms plus a catering kitchen, in addition to private lounge, kitchen and bathroom.

Externally, there is a large enclosed, slate tiled courtyard and raised gardens to the rear, which currently provide an outside seating area. However this area is very well suited for further development/expansion or on site car parking and storage.
