Belvedere landlords escape license review after drugs bust
A licensing review launched after stashed drugs were found in pub
toilets has been scrapped after the landlords put in place the extra
controls demanded by police.
Bosses at the "Eardley Arms," in Woolwich Road, Belvedere, were
facing a licence review after police raided the pub and arrested three
patrons on suspicion of cannabis possession and a woman for cocaine
possession.
But the license hearing, which was due to take place before Bexley
council's licensing committee on Wednesday, was halted after the
landlords brought in the extra demands made by police.
These include installing CCTV which should be in good working order
at all times, staff training on responsible sale of alcohol, and special
dugs awareness training for the premises supervisor and staff checking
the toilets a minimum of every two hours.
This comes after police raided the pub in front of around 30
customers on September 24 at approximately 7pm. |
Traced back to 1789 although the current building was erected in about
1860.
In the 1930s it was part of the Beasley's Brewery tied houses.
