Knaresborough pub granted licence to serve alcohol outside until 10pm
A Knaresborough pub has been granted permission to sell customers alcohol outside until 10pm after a police objection was withdrawn.
The Cricketers, located on Thistle Hill, Calcutt, has won approval to extend its premises licence to include an outdoor bar after agreeing to rules around CCTV suggested by North Yorkshire Police.
A spokesperson for Harrogate Borough Council confirmed the decision to the Local Democracy Reporting Service on Wednesday.

A decision on the licence application was due to be made at a meeting next Tuesday (June 1) but this has now been cancelled.
North Yorkshire Police licensing officer PC Jackie Allen previously said in a report that CCTV cameras which have been installed must be of a high quality, recording at all times when the pub is open and with the footage made available within 48 hours of any request.
She said:
The pub is located at the former Union Hotel and is owned by national brewing and pub retailing business Marston’s.
It previously had a licence to serve customers from an indoor bar until midnight Sunday to Thursday and 2am on Fridays and Saturdays. The new licence also now covers sales from a new outdoor bar.
