Statutory nuisance law in England and Wales
by Rosalind Malcolm, Leslie William Blake
Interdisciplinary Environmental Review (IER), Vol. 1, No. 2, 1999

Abstract: This paper gives a description and an assessment of some of the difficulties of implementing the laws relating to statutory nuisance in the United Kingdom, with special reference to the increasing social problem of noise in urban and other communities. It provides a historical account of the origins, and the development of, the concept of 'statutory nuisances' in England and Wales, an explanation of the separate evolution of legislation relating to noise, and a brief comparison with the different approach which has been adopted in Scotland.
