An ice cream company has been granted a licence to serve alcohol from a new venue based in converted toilets in a Saddleworth park.
Oldham’s licensing panel has approved an application from Grandpa Greene’s Luxury Ice Cream Ltd for a new premises licence for a ‘small’ restaurant on the edge of a park in Uppermill, which would accommodate 44 people.
The green light came despite several objections from residents and a parish councillor who raised concerns about the effect of serving alcohol within the King George V Playing Fields.
