Court Rules on Noisy Motorsport Events

( Last Updated: 08-09-2009 )

Following complaints from residents in Smeatharpe and a number of other villages in the AONB, East Devon District Council's Environmental Protection team carried out an investigation into allegations that increased levels of motor sport activity at the old airfield were causing a noise nuisance. 

As a result of the team's findings, a court has upheld the Council's contention that noisy motor sports at Smeatharpe airfield are unreasonable and has limited the events to just seven days a year.
