whiskyfiend Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 My friends band has had to cancel a gig tomorrow night due to the flats nearby complaining about the noise.This pub had been there for many a year with no trouble and the flats are fairly new build. What i hate is new build flats in once "no go" areas and the area is now a yuppy heaven. The pub is and was there for the long gone factories, what right has someone who pays 250k for a studio flat to complain about a pub that was there long before the flats. Its a not in my back garden system, well im sorry u should have looked at the facts before buying over the odds for a lego house:loopy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any sane person who moves to house near on to a pub and then starts complaining about the noise is crackers . The same as those that move to the Country and then complain about cocks crowing , cows mooing , and the smell of pig ****te. When I lived at Walkley the yuppie mob started moving in and the first thing that happened was that they called a meeting in the pub to complain about Doncasters hammer going all night . Tooosers every one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owethemnowt Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 ' why should stopping a building .......' it's called progress. It's also called applying the law. I'm grateful SCC is diligent and effective in dealing with noise; neighbours from hell, and in this case a too noisy pub. That's the point: the pub makes too much noise. Decibels - measured and found excessive. Those sleep fiends get what they deserve; a good night's kip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockonvynil Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 They do not have to stop having gigs just moderate the noise and stop being anti-social.Just because the pub was there first does not give then any special rights under the noise abatement act.

cuttsie Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) They do not have to stop having gigs just moderate the noise and stop being anti-social.Just because the pub was there first does not give then any special rights under the noise abatement act. Sheffield was a noise, hammers hammering, furnaces belching, clattering cutlery , steel rolling down half mile mills and then !!!!!the pubs satisfied the thirst of the inhabitants of this once great City at 6 am to satisfy the thirst of the people that made the City. And then a new tribe arrives , green wellies, yellow porches[cars] , sandles in december, pigtails , and plumbs in gobs . This tribe decides that they are going to be stay on's from the two Universities and that the City must change to be the never never land that exists within their heads, wine bars, sushi ? cafe's , real ale? and Toyota priances. They have ruined this proud place and made it a bleedin imitation . Edited April 9, 2015 by cuttsie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biotechpete Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 My house was built in 1890, does that mean i'm more entitled to complain about the racket of karaoke (the invention of which significantly post dates my house) coming from my local pub after 11pm on a Sunday night?
