Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition restricting operating hours is necessary, enforceable and reasonable having regard to the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The lack of substantive evidence regarding current noise levels and the potential for increased disturbance at unsociable hours to immediately adjacent residential dwellings meant the condition restricting operating hours was necessary and reasonable to protect neighbouring amenities.
