So according to you, you have the right to shut down centuries old
traditions because you personally don't like it?
No, not me. All I have is the right to complain if I feel the noise is a
nuisance. If I do, the local authority has to investigate it and see if my
complaint is justified according to standard protocols. If they decide my
complaint is justified, they will issue a noise abatement order.
What's wrong with that?
OK - just don't live near me. Ever.
Why? If the law says I can complain about a nuisance, who are you to say
otherwise?
I think you'll find that a fortnightly ringing practice plus bells once
a week for the Sunday service won't constitute a nuisance.
If it's not a nuisance, it's not a nuisance.
If it's loud and stops me enjoying my property, however, it is and I can complain,
which seems fair enough to me. What's wrong with that?
