Residents divided over controversial plans for Leeds pub to stay open longer

A Leeds pub has devised plans to extend its opening hours past midnight and to have loud speakers outside the venue. The Roundhay, which is between Roundhay Road and Ravenscar avenue has asked for permission to stay open until 1.30am on Friday and Saturday nights.

The pub will stay open until 12.30am for the rest of the week. The plan is to stay open an hour-and-a-half later than it currently does. The application submitted to Leeds City Council mean that last orders would be 30 minutes before the pub closes.

The pub, owned by brewing giants Greene King, has also asked for a number of conditions on its current licence to be removed, including one which prevents them from using loudspeakers outside. They want permission to play background music past 9pm and to allow children to stay beyond 10pm too.
