Muswell Hill residents should experience a welcome reduction in noise from a popular local bar, following action from Lib Dem councillor Lynne Featherstone.

Bar Meze, at 462 Muswell Hill Broadway, was causing a noise nuisance for local residents in the flats around the area.

Ms Featherstone took up complaints from residents, which resulted in a request from Haringey Council for the bar to seal the air gaps between the building’s structure and its skylight.

The bar has agreed, and the action should help to reduce noise problems.

Lynne Featherstone comments:

“I am pleased that both Bar Meze and the council have listened to the concerns of residents, and I am optimistic that the works will reduce the noise problem.

“I will continue to monitor the situation in the coming weeks.”
