Re: Statutory noise times



Hi dakeb. Thanks for your reply. I'm a bit confused, this website says
there are no set times/noise levels (!!!). I live in Camden, London
(the website is for Southampton, but presumably there is some common
ground in interpreting the law).


http://www.southampton.gov.uk/environment/environmentalhealth/publichealth/noise.asp

"It is a common myth that noise levels are controlled by the time of
day. Many people believe that they can blare loud music out all day, as
long as they turn it down at 11pm. This is totally untrue. There are no
set times or levels which determine whether noise is causing a
statutory nuisance. Investigating officers must use their professional
judgement to decide whether the offending noise is causing an
unreasonable disturbance to the use and enjoyment of the complainant's
property."
