Mr Barber said the fire alarm system had been “condemned” and the venue had to raise “almost £15,000 in a short space of time”.
He said the “boiler broke down before Christmas” and the venue also had to carry out emergency electrical work.

The £5,000 was from the Music Venues Trust’s Pipeline Investment Fund.
Mark Davyd, the charity’s chief executive, said: “Small amounts of money, sensibly invested, can make a real difference to grassroots music venues”.
