A NEW Dorchester bar has been granted a premises licence for 10 years.
An objection to the application for The Last Post, based around fears of noise to neighbours, led to a Dorset Council hearing to make a decision.
The new licence will limit entertainment inside the South Street venue to 11pm and will ensure any outside seating is removed by 9pm. Live or recorded music will only be allowed on a Friday and Saturday and one other day per week and on New Year’s Eve and Christmas Eve. Alcohol sales will be allowed to continue until midnight.
