AN ongoing saga into a wine bar courtyard has now seen residents cry foul over privacy fears. Fourteen Drops, on Yarm High Street, has acquired “temporary event notices” (TENs) to use a space to the rear of the bar to serve customers during Covid restrictions. Owner Fiona McLain urged Stockton Council to show more flexibility in allowing use of the space – with a planning application on its longer term use now imminent. But some neighbours have aired their own concerns about the bar’s use of the courtyard – with loss of privacy, noise, and how the bar has gone about the change causing some disquiet.
