Scarsdale Hundred Pub

Lovely pub, nice setting, prices so good. Just people coming in in dirty and offensive clothes. Not nice when people had made an effort, to have people brushing past with plaster and paint on them. Good thing most of seating was washable.

Bosses at the Scarsdale Hundred pub have applied for permission to extend the venue's opening hours into the early hours of the morning.

The pub, part of the Wetherspoon chain, is located on Sevenairs Road near Beighton, close to Crystal Peaks. It opened in the circular building that was previously home to Damon's Restaurant, which had long been a popular local venue.

Wetherspoon has submitted a planning application to Sheffield City Council asking for a change to a condition that currently limits the pub's opening times. If the request is approved, it would be the first step toward the pub being allowed to stay open until 1:30am on certain nights.

Under the proposed changes, the pub would operate from 7am until 1:30am on Fridays and Saturdays. The same hours would apply on Maundy Thursday, Sundays before a bank holiday, Christmas Eve, Boxing Day, and New Year's Eve.

The outside drinking area would still close earlier, at 10:30pm, although the outdoor smoking area would remain open until 1:30am.

From Sunday to Thursday, the venue would operate from 7am until 12:30am, with the outside drinking area closing at 10:30pm.

In a statement submitted to the council, Wetherspoon said the proposal had been designed with nearby residents in mind. The company noted that homes are located around 100 metres from the pub.

"In formulation of this plan particular regard has been had to the proximity of nearby residential properties, with a view to ensuring the venue is compatible with them," the company said.

The statement also confirmed that discussions had already taken place with a police licensing officer.

"Pre-application discussions have been held with the Police Licensing Officer who is supportive of the later opening hours and an application for variation of the premises licence will be made subject to the successful grant of planning consent," the company added.

Wetherspoon also said the pub provides a range of services throughout the day.

"The Scarsdale Hundred provides a broad range of food and drink services throughout the trading day, including those provided by traditional licensed premises, cafes and restaurants. This range of services when combined with the style of operation of Wetherspoon premises provides substantial benefits for the community, attracting people throughout the day, enhancing the viability of the locale."

The company has also told planning officials it would be willing to accept a temporary extension to the opening hours so the impact can be reviewed over a 12-month period.

The pub's name, Scarsdale Hundred, comes from an old administrative district recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086.
