No person under fourteen shall be in the bar of the licensed premises during the permitted hours unless one of the following applies:

(2) He resides in the premises, but is not employed there.

In this condition “bar” includes any place exclusively or mainly used for the consumption of intoxicating liquor. But an area is not a bar when it is usual for it to be, and it is, set apart for the service of table meals and alcohol is only sold or supplied to persons as an ancillary to their table meals.
Operating Schedule Conditions
Any person on the premises who appears to be under 18 years of age attempting to purchase alcohol from the establishment or operate the AWP machines shall be challenged to produce photographic evidence to ascertain their proof of age.
Children (as defined in the Licensing Act 2003) shall not be allowed on the premises unless accompanied by an adult at all times.
Nudity shall not be permitted on the premises.
There shall be no emptying of bottle skips after 22.00 hours.
Annex 3 - Conditions attached after a hearing by the licensing authority
Noise from amplified and non-amplified music, singing and speech arising from regulated entertainment at the premises [between the hours of 23:00 and 07:00] shall not be audible inside habitable rooms of noise sensitive properties in the vicinity.
Informative Note:
Licensees are advised to carry out a simple “sound check” outside the nearest noise sensitive property by listening to the music etc. coming from regulated entertainment. If the music etc. is clearly audible then it is likely that this condition is being breached. Steps should then be taken to reduce the volume of the noise.
For the purpose of providing an objective standard to assess whether this condition is being complied with or not, noise shall be considered not to be audible if:
) the measurement of sound when music etc is on (expressed as LAeq, 1min) does not exceed the measurement of sound (expressed as LA90, 5min) when the music is off, and
) the measurement of sound in each 1/3rd octave band between 40Hz and 160 Hz when music is on (expressed as L10, 1min) does not exceed the measurement of sound in the same 1/3rd octave bands between 40Hz and 160Hz when the music is off (expressed as L90, 5min)
All measurements to be taken within the habitable room normally occupied at the time in question, using a Type 1 integrating-averaging sound level meter compliant with BS EN 60804, with either windows open for normal ventilation or closed, whichever situation causes greater noise disturbance.
No speaker used to relay amplified music, singing and speech provided as part of the regulated entertainment shall be positioned outside the building structure of the premises, nor shall any speaker be positioned internally such that the sound is directed through external doors, windows or other openings in the structure.
All external areas of the premises (beer gardens, patios etc) must not be used by customers between the hour of 23.00
All regulated entertainments shall be carried out in the function room only (bar area shown to north of premises on plan 897994). Any other area of the premises shall have background music only.
In order to address concerns with street fouling and anti-social behaviour, I would recommend that the following advisory note be attached to any licence granted.
ADVISORY NOTE:
You can help to reduce crime, disorder and public nuisance if you promote a ‘calm down’ period at the end of the night. Finish any “lively” entertainment (disco, live music, etc) about 30 minutes before the bar closes and play softer background music. Continue to sell water, soft drinks and other non-alcoholic beverages and allow customers to leave naturally.
Prominent, clear notice shall be displayed at all exits requesting customers and staff to respect the needs of local residents and leave the premises and area quietly.
The applicant to provide a replacement plan including detail of fire safety equipment by the second appointed date.
