A coffee shop in Oldham has set its sights on a new business venture.
A coffee and barbers shop in Oldham will soon bring a novel addition to the borough’s nightlife - despite opposition from neighbours. Kobe Ruger on Hartshead Street in Lees successfully applied for a premises licence that will allow them to open late, sell alcohol and play live and recorded music until 11pm on most days.
Abigail Frame, who lives on Woodend Street and is one of the closest homes to the business, objected to the licence at the meeting. She claimed that ‘discarded drug baggies’ and litter in the alleys around the shop had left her worried the sale of alcohol could ‘make matters worse’ for nearby residents.
“They are essentially suggesting to open up a bar in a residential area.... I just feel like that’s inherently unfair. I don't want to put up with it and I don't think anyone else on our street should have to either." Oldham council previously took action against this by cutting down the hedges. But Frame worries the problem will return ‘with alcohol involved’. Another objector has also raised the issue of noise travelling down the residential streets surrounding the shop.
