North Yorkshire hotel's late-night licence plans spark village noise fears
Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 13 Oct, 12:32 · Archive
A North Yorkshire hotel has reduced its late-night entertainment hours after objections from villagers concerned about disrupted sleep.
Tokyo Industries Ultimate Ltd applied for a new premises licence for Monk Fryston Hall Hotel near Selby, which is currently undergoing renovation. The original proposal sought permission for alcohol sales, live and recorded music, films, dancing and other entertainment indoors and outdoors until 2am, seven days a week.
The applicant has since revised the application following discussions with North Yorkshire Police and the council's environmental protection team. Under the amended plans, alcohol sales and live and recorded music would be permitted indoors until 1am, with outdoor activities ending at 10.30pm. Late-night refreshments would be available indoors until 2am, with separate arrangements for alcohol sales to hotel residents and guests.
The hotel has an 80-cover restaurant, gardens and on-site parking, and plans to offer accommodation, dining and wedding facilities. However, Monk Fryston Parish Council and local residents have objected. The council warned the original proposals would harm the village's character and disturb nearby households, citing concerns about amplified music from wedding marquees, intrusive outdoor speakers, and noise from arriving and departing vehicles including engines, voices and car doors.
