Bosses at a Grade-II listed, 600-year-old pub have released a statement after a crash over the weekend.

The incident happened on Saturday (June 1) at around 8pm, in which a car smashed into their pillared porch and balcony, which is at the front of the hotel's main entrance.

On Facebook, the Langport Arms Hotel said: "A car was involved and thankfully no one has been seriously injured!

"However the front entrance to our hotel is blocked and the balcony has been structurally damaged.

"Emergency services were called immediately and first aid was offered onsite immediately.

"We are thankful and very much grateful to our employees who acted so promptly during this shocking and trying time.

"We hope you understand that we will be unable to provide updates upon the incident as we continue to cooperate with the relevant authorities.

"However we want to make it clear that the hotel bar is open and the Sunday Carvery is still open.

"The side door will be our main entrance for the time being.

"Due to the current situation, we are unable to offer direct disabled access, however we will endeavour to support as much as we can.

"Thank you for your continued support and understanding."
