The problem of noise living next to a wind farm.

The seven turbines have sparked the most complaints about wind farms in the country. Residents complain of a noise like someone is "mixing cement in the sky" or a "clog is stuck in the tumble dryer" and they are not the only ones.

New figures reveal that at least one in six wind farms have had complaints about noise causing a lack of sleep or just been "dreadfully irritating".

There are now twenty wind farms in the UK with noise complaints lodged, where local residents have found that despite assurances from wind developers once the turbines have been built they have caused problems.
