Changes to dealing with noise from concerts at York’s Museum Gardens are being considered following a complaint about a show featuring Shed Seven in July.

A City of York Council licensing hearing decided against further action following the complaint from Andrew Dickinson but asked York Museum Trust to consider ways that noise could be managed better.

Trust representative Michelle Hazelwood told councillors they had worked to ensure the concert complied with noise limits and they would look to learn from it when staging future concerts.

But Mr Dickinson, of Westminster Road in Clifton, said the noise had stopped him and other residents from sitting in their gardens while also distressing his autistic son.

The decision to take no further action against the complaint follows Mr Dickinson’s application to review York Museum Trust’s licence which regulates its holding of outdoor events.

The application followed three days of concerts from Thursday, July 18 to Saturday, July 20, the first of which featured solo performer Jack Savoretti.
