A little insensitive, surely? New licensed bar could be established next to Baptist church

A drinking establishment next door to a church? Whatever next?

                                   

IS nowhere sacred?

Plans are afoot for a new licensed bar to open on  Cleethorpes seafront - right next door to a place of worship.

To be known as Side by Side, the bar would be located in recently refurbished premises at 22 Alexandra Road directly adjacent to the long-established Kings Baptist Church .

There could be live and/or recorded music on Sundays while services are in progress.
