However, the plans have received two objections from neighbours concerned about noise and an invasion of privacy.

"This was never on their original plans to be a beer garden. It was supposed to be the outside smoking area.
"The area myself and neighbours live in, is a residential area.
"Raising the height to involve a rooftop beer garden would certainly allow the noise to carry even more.
"Also we would be directly overlooked, lose privacy and lose sunlight to our properties."
A decision on the planning application will be made at a later date.
