THE future of the Butchers Arms pub in Yatton will become clearer tomorrow (Mon) when it goes before a licensing committee at the Town Hall.
North Somerset Council decided to review the pub’s licence following a series of complaints from local residents in High Street.
The Butchers Arms, which advertises its ‘warm, local friendly atmosphere’, was the subject of 22 police reports in a 12-month period from May 2010.
Residents said their lives were being made a misery following a series of brawls, swearing, urinating and drunkenness in the area.
The council can decide to revoke the licence completely or alter conditions such as the opening hours.
The first hearing was postponed last month after police officers were unable to make the date.
