| PPG24 (IIRC) and BS4142 are very clear on noise nuisance. I am involved at a professional level with these guidance notes and standards, but for anyone really interested go and look them up. They're easy to understand.
BS4142 deals with complaints arising from existing amenities/facilities. Batz is generally correct in what he says when it comes to the law protecting people from noise.
It does sound like the judge had a sensible head on, but I fear he might be slightly awry in his summing up if I understand NBs996's summary correctly.
If I remember I will dig out all the relevant info tomorrow.
