A Sheffield brewery's plan to reopen a village pub with extended late-night hours has sparked backlash from residents in Wharncliffe Side.
Bradfield Brewery, known for its range of beers brewed on a working dairy farm in the Peak District, has applied for a new licence for the Wharncliffe Arms, located on Main Road. The pub has been closed for renovations since 2023 and is described by the brewery as "a traditional village pub" welcoming both locals and visitors.
However, the proposal to allow the pub to stay open until 1am every night - along with permission for live and recorded music until midnight - has drawn strong objections from nearby residents.
The application will go before Sheffield City Council's licensing sub-committee at a meeting in Sheffield Town Hall on 20th May.
A local resident, in a formal objection submitted to the council, described the plans as "completely unsuitable for this location," highlighting concerns about noise, disruption, and anti-social behaviour in what they called a "quiet residential street." The objection also pointed to the potential impact of late-night traffic, car doors slamming, and groups gathering outside the pub, especially during warmer months when the outdoor seating area would be in use.
The resident added: "While I support local business and hospitality, it must be balanced with the rights of residents to peace and quiet, particularly during night-time hours. This application represents a fundamental change in the nature of the premises from a traditional village pub to a late-night venue."
A wider petition signed by members of the community echoed the concern, calling the proposed hours "excessive" and warning that they would bring "ongoing public nuisance, increased safety risks, and a fundamental change to the character of our community."
The outcome of the licensing application will be decided following the council hearing next week.
