Guide to 'Noise and odour nuisance' section
Noise from road and air traffic, and from neighbours, can result in nuisance. When there is chronic exposure to high levels, noise can even result in clinically observable damage to health. The public can also suffer odour nuisance from, for example, road traffic, industry, agriculture and horticulture and open fires.
