Golden Slots (Southern) Ltd has applied to Brent Council for a licence to operate from 169-171 Cricklewood Broadway. Adult gaming centres are a different planning class to traditional betting shops and typically offer low-stakes slot machines, bingo machines or tablets. Last year, Brent Council’s planning team refused an application to turn the now vacant bank into an adult gaming centre due to the number of gambling sites already present in the area. There is also a Merkur Bingo at 200 Cricklewood Broadway and Admiral Casino at 160 Cricklewood Broadway. The latest submission states that Golden Slots would surrender its bingo licence if its adult gaming centre application were approved.
