‘Our neighbourhood is now a drunken, drugged up 24-hour party place not fit for humans’
A South Manchester estate packed with students has been described as a 'drunken, drugged up conurbation' with a 24/7 party atmosphere. Long-term residents of the Fallowfield Brow area say they are 'frightened' to be out at night and some have moved elsewhere as a result.
Nick Roberts, who lives in Landcross Road, told the licensing panel, "I'm at the very end of my tether". He said: "Make no mistake, the Fallowfield Brow area is now nothing more than a party-club-fested, drunken, drugged up conurbation, it's fit for no human life or existence and becoming one giant noise fest.
Speaking on behalf of Fallowfield Community Guardians, Sue Hare said alcohol is a 'big part of the problem' in the area. She said: "It's not a normal suburb. The objector also said that the situation is now 'so awful' that people feel frightened to be out at night. She added: "It's caused many members of our group to leave their homes because they're in bed, people are walking past, shouting, yelling, screaming, drinking, smashing glass and waking them up."We've lost many members of our residents group.
However, the licensing panel was told at the start of the hearing that the cumulative impact policy is now out of date. A full review of the policy is expected to be presented to the licensing committee in early March.
