The licence of a Nottingham pub which locals claim 'got out of hand' has been revoked following 'longstanding' concerns. The decision over the Horse and Groom, in Radford Road, Basford, was made during a special city council licensing panel meeting on Tuesday (August 30).
Councillor Toby Neal, who represents the Berridge ward for Labour, said there had been 'longstanding' concerns about the former Shipstones pub. And he explained police had enough evidence to take the licence to the special review.
Inspector Paul Whitehead, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “Owing to a number of incidents in recent years, and more recently a serious incident that occurred in July, the licensing team had a need to urgently review the licence at the Horse and Groom. This matter resulted in the police presenting a case to the licensing authority with the view of revoking the licence.
