Drunken mob outside The Rose at 3am

[RobertsonCrusoe]

I'd just like to say a big thank you to the 100+ "yoofs" that made their way down Forest Hill Road towards Peckham Rye from The Rose (Forest Hill Tavern)between 2:45am and 3:15am this morning. There was no shouting, screaming or swearing from these well lubricated revellers. There were no car doors banging shut and no car horns going off and I wasn't woken from a deep sleep.

And of course a big thank you to The Rose itself for ensuring their clientele conducted themselves properly on leaving the premises. Oh, by the way - can anyone tell me when the pub secured a late licence till 3am on a Friday?

This isn't the first time there's been a bit of noise in the street at kicking-out time, but previously this was around midnight, not in the wee small hours. Never happened when it was the FHT......

[StraferJack]

No, of course it didn't

the world is going to hell in a hand cart etc etc

Not that I don't have some sympathy with late noise etc but unless it's a regular occurrence at the Rose, writing it off as a one-off seems like a better bet than saying "it never happened before"

[RobertsonCrusoe]

I certainly can't recollect the FHT being open into the small hours, so probably factually correct saying it hasn't happened before.

Let's hope it is a one-off, as being woken at 2.45 with 30 minutes of shouting and screaming outside your front door isn't much fun. Thanks for the sympathy.

I've just checked the news and can report that the world went to hell in a hand cart some time ago.....

Someone whose name I forget posted on here a few months ago posing about noise disturbance from a karaoke night in its pre-Rose days. If it were me, I'd be popping in to have a chat with the management today about the noise levels last night.

RobertsonCrusoe, did you read Strafer's link?

Thanks Rosie, I've just checked the posts from 2008. Apologies to Mr Strafer. I can obviously only comment from my experience since moving here towards the end of 2009. I didn't think the FHT had a licence after 12 midnight, although it looks like they did have a licence until 5am, which seems a bit absurd. I've tried to check the council website for current licence arrangements but the site seems to be down right now.

ibilly99 obviously witnessed last nights events, as he's taken a photo.

Hello All,

On behalf of the ROSE I would like to apologise if anyone was disturbed last night while people left the pub-it was a one-off birthday party-and although people were told to leave quietly it is sometimes not always followed through.

The pub does carry a license 24hour license 7 days a week on entertainment and alcohol- and I will stress that though this is the case it is only ever rare occasions that the ROSE remains open beyond usual pub hours.

How refreshing to have an apology. Thumbs up for the Rose.

[DJKillaQueen]

It's impossible for any licenced premise to guarantee there will never be an incident of excessive noise....what matters is that it is a rare occureance as opposed to the rule.

You all sound like ppl that don't use pubs. Go to the Rose, have a drink and maybe something to eat, and talk to the owners, embrace a local because they are dying out.

And you can also comment here too:

"ppl" that use pubs don't necessarily wake the neighbourhood in the early hours.

I love pubs, I love a late night drink. Hell, I like getting drunk. Doesn't mean I have to act like a cunt in the way home though.

[mr garcia]

you live near a pub, you knew it was there, snd this is what you have to put up with now and again. I don't live near a pub, just like i don;t live on a main road. I made these choices and you have too.

So today go to the Rose and talk to them. Don't suppose you will, too much effort!

Most people bought their homes many years ago when pubs shut at 11.00. 10.30 on Sunday

They should not have to put up with it..

Ok report the incident to police. The pub will then have a mark against it which will be considered next time they go before the licensing panel.

Not reporting it or telling the pub owners will change nothing. Take action to stop it, don't just whine about it here

[ibilly99]

People love whining here and others love to read the whines - why not - cest la vie - you are moaning about people moaning which I also hate..... DOH !

[Clarey28]

I live opposite it and think the noise was much much worse as the FHT. Awful actually.

[Otta]

So today go to the Rose and talk to them. Don't suppose you will,

You're right, I won't, because I live nowhere near it.

[george74]

Having just moved across from Goodrich road I was a little surprised to see that The Rose had such a late licence, but fair play to them for apologising. Thanks!!! Hopefully this won't be a weekly event, however there seemed to be more customers outside the pub than actually in it, so not sure how they can control this anyway...
