A planning application for a development adjacent to London venue MOTH Club has been refused, marking what the team behind the venue called “a huge win” for its future.
Announcing the news via Instagram, MOTH Club thanked people who supported its campaign in standing against the nearby development by signing petitions, voicing their disapproval for the plans and amplifying the venue’s cause. “We couldn’t have done it without your support,” the social media post read.
There is still some uncertainty around the situation, however. A separate planning application related to another nearby development is still in progress, and MOTH Club’s team believe that could still pose a risk to the venue’s future.
“We need to keep spreading the word and make sure our venue continues to be a home for live music, comedy and grassroots culture.”
