A music venue could face closure after a nearby resident complained about noise.

Islington Mill’s licence will be reviewed by the council after a resident submitted a request to the authority.

Charlatans singer Tim Burgess has given his support to the venue, describing it as a ‘brilliant performance space’.

Bosses have appealed for fans to contact the town hall with messages of support.

But in documents submitted to the council, the resident claims venue management have not acted after concerns have been raised previously.

They add that ‘loud music’ can be heard until the early hours of the morning, mostly at weekends, and that there is noise from taxis.

In the document submitted to the council, the resident said: “Residents have had several meetings over the years with Islington Mill management but they go away and on the next music night forget all they promised to do.

“They just carry on with no control over the problem.”

In a Twitter post entitled ‘We need your help’, the venue said: “Islington Mill’s licence is up for review, due to a complaint submitted to Salford City Council by a local resident.

“To support our case and show your love for Islington Mill and our events program we are asking for your help.

“Please help by writing to Salford City Council explaining what Islington Mill means to you and the importance of the building to the creative culture of Salford and Manchester.”

It is not the first time the venue has been involved in a dispute over noise.

In 2014 it closed temporarily after receiving complaints, and said it was working with acoustics professionals and residents to improve the situation.

Opened in 2000, the mill is a music venue and creative hub, and recently received a grant of £928,000 from Arts Council England.

Salford council also pledged an additional £400,000, and with other donations it has raised more than £1.76m.

These funds will go towards the £2.5 million needed for a renovation and refurbishment scheme to maintain the venue’s long term future.

Over its near two decade history more than 1,700 artists and creatives from around the world have passed through the doors of Islington Mill.

The venue has 50 studio spaces housing over 100 creatives, as well as event and gallery spaces, collectively attracting 15,000 annual visitors.

The deadline for submissions to Salford council for the licencing review is Tuesday.
