Club 66 in Bury town centre had its licence reviewed at the request of police
A Bury town centre nightclub has had its licence revoked after police alleged that a 17-year-old girl was raped after leaving the premises. Club 66 on Silver Street was this week ordered to shut ‘with immediate effect’ by Bury Council after a licensing hearing requested by Greater Manchester Police .
At an earlier hearing in March this year when the club applied for a temporary hours extension, GMP told the council the extension ‘would undermine the prevention of crime and disorder’. They said said there was ‘potential for crime and disorder which poses a public safety risk’ and gave notice of their intention to seek full licence review for the premises.
The club’s website contains a description of the venue. It said: “Club 66 Bury is a one-of-a-kind restaurant and club in the North West. Our pleasant and sophisticated ambience is open to all who want to indulge in luxurious surroundings.” A Bury Council spokesperson said: “In the capacity as the licensing authority, the council’s licensing and safety committee on June 13, 2023, considered an application to review the premises licence submitted by Greater Manchester Police in respect of Club 66, 24 Silver Street, Bury.
