Good afternoon Sarah

 

I have just spoken with Mr Richard Balfour-Lynn who asked me to contact you directly regarding the premises licence variation application for Hush Heath Winery

 

The application had been invalidated at this time for the following reasons:-

 

  • Opening hours to the public stated 10:00 hours until 17:00 hours - this time should incorporate all your licensable activity hours on the premises therefore we would look for it to read 10:00 hours until 00:00 hours. Please, change this to 10:00 until 00:00 as advised.
  • You have stated under ‘Part 3 - Nature of the proposed variation’ that the variation is for the extension, being the new building etc.  However you have not mentioned the addition of licensable activities being, Live Music, Recorded Music, and Late Night Refreshment.  None of these are on the current Licence for Hush Heath Winery, therefore form part of the variation. Your current licence is for the ‘Sale or Supply of Alcohol’ only. Again, please add these in to the proposed variation, very occasionally live music, recorded music and late night refreshment.  These will be a limited number of times during the year and will be within the building.  
  • On page 14 you have stated that the activities will not change from the original approved premises licence, the only difference being the new part of the building with improved visitor facilities - this is obviously not the case as I have stated above the original licence only includes sale/supply of alcohol. As per the above description.

 

I would therefore appreciate it if you could respond to all of the above by return email giving your permission for us to amend your application.   Once we have your confirmation, your application will be validated and the notice may be displayed giving the full 28 day consultation period.  The notice must also then appear in the newspaper within 10 working days.

 

I will be in the office tomorrow from 9am until 5pm if you wish to ring me to discuss the above points.

 

Kind regards
