A Glasgow pub has been permitted to use its beer garden during events at Hampden Park – but the area can’t open when Rangers play Celtic at the stadium.
Neighbours of the Beechwood, on Ardmay Crescent, objected to the bar’s plans to serve customers using the outdoor seating on event days, with one resident previously reporting men urinating outside her window.
Beechwood bosses initially asked to make changes to its premises licence in 2019 but the covid pandemic impacted a planned six-month trial. The trial was restarted in February and the city’s Licensing Board has now decided to approve the permanent variation despite nine objections.
