Annex 2 - Conditions consistent with the Operating Schedule
General
The brewery will take all measures to prevent crime and disorder. No one who is or appears to be under the age of 18 will be served with alcohol. The premises location, business activity and by invitation only for brewery tours will contribute to this policy. Security lighting and CCTV camera are already in place. To provide the visiting public with a safe environment fire escapes will be clearly marked, fire fighting equipment will be in prominent places and be maintained at regular intervals. Public nuisance will be minimised by only delivering in working hours. Steps to reduce noise nuisance will include cars to be parked on the private mill car park along with a maximum number of people (20) visiting the brewery at any one time.
The Prevention of Crime and Disorder
It is the policy of Greenfield Real Ale Brewery that no alcohol will be sold to any one who is or appears to be under 18 years of age. Proof of age will be required and no alcohol sold if official proof is not provided. The tour combination of recognised clubs, organisations and ‘mature’ clientele let alone the Real Ale beverage itself distances the brewery activities from the drinking habits of the younger age group. The younger age group can often be held responsible for an increase in crime and disorder either by the use of alcohol or gathering in areas where it is available. The remote and secure physical location of the premises will have minimum impact to any existing levels of crime and disorder in the area. The mill car park is in use 24 hrs a day and is also a base for the local taxi company. Its illumination and constant use deters people intent on committing crime.
Public Safety
The mill complex has a fire certificate. Fire escapes are clearly marked. Prior to any tour commencing a safety talk will be given. The public will be shown the fire escapes, the location of the fire fighting equipment and asked to assemble in the car park if the building has to be evacuated. Halogen lighting is provided on exiting the building. The brewery is a no smoking area as is the rest of the mill complex. No smoking signs are clearly displayed in the brewery and common areas. The mill fire bell is tested once a week and both the brewery and mill are covered by a water sprinkler system. Fire extinguishers and emergency lighting are located in the brewery.
The Prevention of Public Nuisance
The brewery’s aim is to sell real ale to both the trade and public. In most cases this will require the delivery to be direct to the customer premises. No alcohol will be left at premises where a signature cannot be obtained from a person who is over 18 years of age. Proof of age will be required and no alcohol left if official proof is not provided. In order to prevent public nuisance delivery will be within the working hours of 08:00 hrs to 18:00hrs. Brewery tours will are by appointment only and the number of persons in any tour is limited to 20. People will be instructed to park in the main mill car park and follow the private mill road past other business units to the nearest entrance to the brewery. The solid construction of the mill will minimise any noise. Signs will be placed indicating that people should leave quietly following the tour and to follow the private mill road back to the car park.
The Protection of Children from Harm
Greenfield Real Ale Brewery has a policy of NOT allowing children on to the brewery premises. Any member of the public entering the brewery with children will be told of the brewery’s policy regarding children. It will be requested that the public and children will leave the brewery and business will continue outside of the brewery. Brewery tour invitations will state that under 18’s are not allowed on the premises. Any one turning up for the brewery tour who appears to be under 18 years of age will not be admitted unless official proof of age is available. When delivering alcohol to customer premises it will not be left where a signature cannot be obtained from a person who is over 18 years of age. Official proof of age will be requested if there is any doubt.
