Defence: common law private nuisance

This is an example defence which could be used as a starting point when drafting a defence to a claim for damages in common law private nuisance. It also responds to a claim for an injunction sought to restrain a continuing nuisance. Note that it must be adapted to the specific facts and circumstances and is to be read in conjunction with the integrated drafting notes and Practice note, Common law nuisance.
