A Sherwood pub has had its licensing hours extended. Nottingham City Council's licensing panel met on Monday, October 10, where they approved an application to vary an existing license for The Sherwood Inn, located on Mansfield Road, where there is a number of late night businesses.
The pub had applied to have its licensing extended on Fridays and Saturdays so that it can sell alcohol an hour later. The application has also requested for the premises to be able to play recorded music for an additional 30 minutes on each of these nights, which would be until 1am and allow for a half hour period for customers to drink their remaining drinks.
Sherwood Inn has been in operation for several years, and is run by the Craft Union Pub Company, which has more than 400 sites across the UK. It was discussed in the meeting that other competing businesses nearby to The Sherwood Inn, did already have their hours approved until 2am, and it was also noted that there had been no objections to the application from any of the responsible authorities, including Nottinghamshire Police and Environmental Health.
