Latest News.
Newcastle City Council is now consulting on the next issue of its Licencing Policy which describes when and
where licences will be granted under the Licencing law which it administers.
Residents can comment on the proposals to the City's Licensing team and to Jesmond Network.
Information is available from the city's own web site at
www.newcastle.gov.uk/home.nsf/a/licensingact2003
The Gresham Hotel story continues . . .
It was only last autumn (Oct 2006) that the City Council's Licensing Committee refused an application by Kickpoint Ltd to
Licence the Gresham Hotel. Now in August 07 they are applying again - this time they're applying for Planning
Permission first, for a restaurant which will allow customers to arrive up until 11pm with space at outside
tables for around 30 people. Customers would be able to continue enjoying their meal for an hour or more after that time.
Concerned residents will presumably be letting their
views be know to the Planning Department before August 23rd.
The Brandling pub in Brandling Village.
The Brandling pub near Clayton Road
applied for a Licence to allow a range of late night activities, including remaining open
until 1:30am. There were very many letters of objection and during the hearing in July 07 the
applicants cut back back much of their application to just one extra hour's drinking on Friday and Saturday nights.
Residents were very dissapointed at this permission to increase further the disruption they already experience from
the pub in their back lane and have now launched an Appeal.
Osborne Road late night drinking
Hot on the heels of the extra hour granted to the Brandling, the New Northumbria Hotel in Osborne Road has also
applied for an extra hour's drinking on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. This includes the popular
Osborne's Bar.
Residents have until August 30th to make their views known to the Licensing unit of the City Council.
Other developments are also in the pipeline.
There are plans for other developments in Jesmond - in the building that was once The Jesmond Cinema
near West Jesmond Metro, and The Collingwood
pub in Brandling Village and The Punchbowl
near the Cradlewell shops.
