Part of the former Commercial Inn in Abercarn could become a beauty salon and nail bar.

Lee Jones has applied to convert the pub’s vacant ground floor and basement.

The upper floors of the building would remain in residential use.

AJ Planning said the lower floors had been empty “for several years” and the plans would “bring a long-vacant building back into an appropriate and beneficial mixed use”.

Plans show the ground floor would include a reception area, salon, office and toilets.

The basement would house the nail salon, storage areas and more toilets.

The application is open for consultation on the Caerphilly County Borough Council website under reference 26/0711/COU.

The building previously operated as a care home, following its earlier use as a local public house, before the lower floors became vacant.
