A popular South Liverpool venue hopes to create an external eating area as it responds to a change in habits as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
An application has been submitted to Liverpool Council for the creation of a covered seating area outside The Green Man bar on Lark Lane, which until recently was known as the Ink in the Well. The proposal would involve the partial demolition of a single-storey area at the rear of the property and conversion of a former kitchen area.
The plans have been submitted by Robert Gutmann, who owns a number of venues in the area including Love and Rockets, which was the focus of a contentious planning application of its own earlier this year. According to a design and access statement submitted to the local authority, the plans would include removal of a small roof area to create external space for eating and drinking across five tables.
