An entertainment company has applied to host events at a skyscraper in Reading town centre.<\/p>\n
The Blade, standing at 86 metres, is the tallest building in the town.<\/p>\n
It is also called Abbey Mill House, as the site was previously used as a mill.<\/p>\n
An entertainment company called Happy Valley Recreation has applied to conduct a range of activities on the ground and lower ground floors of the building.<\/p>\n
The business wants to sell alcohol, show films and put on live music and other performances between 8am and 11pm each day.<\/p>\n
Additionally, it has applied to provide late-night refreshment until 5am each day. This covers the sale and provision of food, soft drinks and hot drinks.<\/p>\n
To host the activities, Happy Valley Recreation requires a premises licence from Reading Borough Council.<\/p>\n
A statutory consultation into the application has been launched.<\/p>\n
You can respond to the consultation by emailing licensing@reading.gov.uk.<\/p>\n
The deadline for responses ends on Monday, November 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An entertainment company has applied to host events at a skyscraper in Reading town centre.
