Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed variation to condition No 4 on the living conditions of nearby occupiers, in respect of noise and disturbance
What decided it
The extension of opening hours by 6 hours on Sundays at a time when nearby residents have reasonably come to expect a period of peace and quiet would have a significant adverse effect on their living conditions through increased noise and disturbance, which cannot be adequately mitigated.
