✦ Synopsis


The circumstances in which a person with a legal interest in land may be granted a perpetual injunction to restrain a noise nuisance are critically examined. A householder's legal rights should not be overridden by the interests of club members or of the public in attending motor boat racing events organised by such a club, so as to deprive him of the remedy of in~unction. The Court of Appeal so hem in the recent decision of Kennaway v. Thompson 30 April, 1980. The principles which the court applies in considering the granting of an interlocutory injunction to a local authority to restrain a noise which is a nuisance under the Control of Pollution Act, Section 58 (8), are also considered.
