An application for a premises licence for ‘The Leadmill’, 6-7 Leadmill Road, has been granted, with conditions, by Sheffield City Council’s Licensing Sub Committee. The application was submitted by MVL Properties 2017 Ltd, the landlord of the building.
The venue is able to remain open and continue to operate under its current licence conditions.
Councillor Tom Hunt, Leader of Sheffield City Council, said: “The Leadmill is a much-loved venue which has hosted some of the world’s best bands. It holds an important place in our city’s music scene, and I know many residents have very special memories of The Leadmill.
“The application for a shadow licence was approved because the council’s Licensing Sub Committee found that the applicants demonstrated they could uphold all four of the licensing objectives.
“As a statutory Licensing Authority, the council has a legal duty to be fair, unbiased and treat each licence application the same. The application for a shadow licence for ‘The Leadmill’ by MVL Properties 2017 Ltd was treated impartially and the case was considered on its own merits.
“I’d like to reassure residents that the premises licence held by The Leadmill’s management team remains valid and the venue is able to remain open and run as normal.”
