Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed amendment to opening times, with regards to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposed extended opening hours would have an adverse effect upon the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties through increased noise and disturbance, conflicting with Policy 34 of the Local Plan, and the modest economic benefits do not outweigh this harm.
