Johnny Fly, Lavender Hill, licensing application
The council have received a licensing application from Johnny Fly, 145 Lavender Hill.

It is difficult to know what to

Battersea Mess licensing decision
And as I’m in something of a licensing groove, or rut, I may as well update on the decision of the Battersea Mess licensing review, which has been published today. In short: do nothing. The resident who requested the review had moved and decided not to attend the hearing. After listening to the evidence of

Best One, Eversleigh Road licence review decision
The licensing sub-committee considered Best One’s licensing application last month. The original application was for a licence until 11pm.

New conditions on the Beaufoy
View Larger Map The licensing review on the Beaufoy reconvened last week following what can only be described as an abortive first meeting when the police evidence was not as robust as it should have been. I confess that my attempts to find out more about the police’s position in the intervening weeks has done

Battersea Mess licensing review
View Larger Map A licensing review for Battersea Mess, on Lavender Gardens, has been requested by a local resident on the grounds the existing conditions have not upheld the prevention of public nuisance licensing objective. I understand they seek a restriction of hours and additional conditions. As a (semi) regular of the Mess I can’t

Best One, Eversleigh Road, licensing application
View Larger Map An application has been made by Best One for an alcohol licence at 227-229 Eversleigh Road. Their application appears quite straightforward, sale of alcohol from 6am until 11pm every day of the week.
