More to the point… if it’s not a cellar… what is it?!? What else do you call the room under a house that used to be a pub? “Void beneath the building previously a pub?” Or something catchier…?

I'd call it 'my beer cellar', get access clarified, raise the level of the hatch, check the main and put a dehumidifier in for a week, then make a set of stairs, a bar and a sofa, and have the local brewery deliver a barrel of beer to celebrate the reopening.

Alternately sell it to the neighbour that has access, but I think there is more to the access story yet to come.

Pubs have cellars.

Under the building, not under the ground or foundations, basements/cellars are part of the building.

Pubs in Nottingham are possibly an exception

The Nottingham pub caves rule. I've been in two of 'em.

That is very cool, there must be loads of stuff like this under city buildings.
