Bar owners Roland Edwards and Beverley Williams were clearing up after closing the bar when they heard the sound of a car braking. It was around 8.40pm. Beverley said: 'I was chatting to three customers and we heard the sound of tyres screeching way before the car hit the building - it must have gone on for 10-15 seconds. 'The whole building shook. The noise was horrendous - it woke up a friend of mine at the back of her house 200 yards away. Although we were inside, we knew immediately what must have happened. 'For a few seconds we stood there in shock before going outside to see what had happened." She said when they got out the car had gone from the scene. She added: 'How he missed the roadside bollards and lamppost, I don't know. Luckily, our bins are placed by the wall and they took some of the impact.
