A former Valleys pub where Stereophonics played some of their very early gigs has gone on the market. First opened in 1869, The Ivy Bush on Kingsbury Place in Cwmaman, Rhondda Cynon Taf, was where Kelly Jones, Richard Jones and the late Stuart Cable first found their feet performing in the late 1980s.
Having closed its doors as a boozer around the turn of the millennium it was converted into a family home in the early noughties and is currently up for grabs to the tune of £325k. Billed as an "exceptional five bedroom converted public house," by the estate agent behind the sale, it's been "sensitively and expertly renovated" to also include "multiple reception rooms, two outbuildings and a sun filled garden, offering a huge amount character." It's certainly unrecognisable from its heyday as a bustling watering hole that served as one of the main social hubs for the village of Cwm and beyond.
