Planning permission rules for outdoor bars

A pub operator has been flooded with support on social media after being told to take down an outside bar by council officials. The Hare and Hounds in Bath, Somerset, built an outside bar after the first lockdown which proved to be a “lifeline” and added a decking area in the autumn. While the decking area was being constructed, Bath & North East Somerset Council contacted the pub to request it to submit a request for pre-planning advice. The council said they wanted the pub to take down the outside bar and suggested a three month period for the business to do this voluntarily before enforcement action in April.
