COUNCILLORS are set to debate plans for a venue in Lichfield to be granted a licence for alcohol sales and music performance.
Deanslade Events at The Barn on Claypit Lane has applied to Lichfield District Council for the authority to host live music between 10am and 11pm as well as the sale of alcohol from midday to 11pm.
The proposals relate to a barn which would hold private functions for around 70 people.
The licence application said:
“It will be utilised for private functions including wedding receptions, birthdays, parties and christenings.
“The premises includes a licensed bar housed within a converted horse box designed to be in keeping with the rural character aesthetic of the building.
“Music will be provided either through a low level internal speaker system or where appropriate by a hired DJ or singer.”
Agreements have been reached with Staffordshire Police relating to the operating schedule and CCTV systems
But objections have been raised by local residents on the grounds of public safety and public nuisance.
The licence application will be decided by councillors at a meeting of the Licensing and Consents Appeals committee at Lichfield District Council on 6th January.
