Where a programme includes a film recommended by the licensing authority as falling into the 12A, 15 or 18 category no person appearing to be under the age of 12 and unaccompanied, or under 15 or 18 as appropriate, shall be admitted to any part of the programme; and the licence holder shall display in a conspicuous position a notice in the following terms:
PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF [INSERT APPROPRIATE AGE] CANNOT BE ADMITTED TO ANY PART OF THE PROGRAMME.

Annex 3 - Conditions attached after a hearing by the licensing authority
1. Regulated entertainment shall not take place other than in the Games Room/Function Room of the premises.
2. The fire exit door located near the gent’s toilets in the Tap Room shall be fitted with a system which alerts staff to the doors being opened in a non-emergency and the door requires closing as soon as possible. (This has already been fitted).
3. 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.
4. All external doors and windows to the room/s where regulated entertainment is being provided shall remain closed during the course of the entertainment, other than for normal access and egress. The fire exit door located near the gents toilets in the Tap room shall not be used as a means of access and egress to/from the premises other than in an emergency.
5. 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.
6. Prominent, clear notices shall be displayed at all exits requesting customers and staff to respect the needs of local residents and leave the premises and area quietly. With regard to the fire exit door located near the gent’s toilets in the Tap Room, a notice shall be displayed advising patrons and staff that the door is alarmed and shall only be used in an emergency.
7. External areas of the premises (beer gardens, patios etc) shall not be used by customers between the hours of 22:00 and 09:00.
8. The noise arising from Regulated Entertainment shall be monitored at least once in every hour whilst the entertainment is being carried out by the licensee, or their representative, at positions (accessible to the public) adjacent to dwellings or other noise sensitive property in the vicinity of the licensed premises. If noise is clearly audible at the monitoring position, the licensee, or their representative, shall take action to reduce the level of noise from Regulated Entertainment. A written log shall be kept of the monitoring, including the date and time when the monitoring took place, the name of the person carrying out the monitoring, the monitoring location, a description of the noise from the premises (if any), and a description of any remedial action taken. The log shall be retained for a minimum period of 12 months and shall be made available for inspection by persons and officers authorised under the Licensing Act 2003.
9. A notice shall be erected advising customers to stand outside while waiting for taxis.
ADVISORY NOTE:
You can help facilitate patrons leaving in a quiet manner through promoting 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.
