Readymixplantruffordst_2
I have posted several times about this plant that lowers the quality of life on Rufford Street in Kings Cross.  I have now had a really amateurish stab at making a video with my mobile phone to try and get the noise across – i am no Eisenstein and am probably the oldest person using YouTube but you can see it here.  Will have another stab with some better kit.

UPDATE 17 JULY

have made a better quality film this morning film using different kit.  am slowly getting the hang of video and will post more clips in the future.

UPDATE 20 July – more video and audio

I have shot some more film of the noise made by lorries tipping aggregate at the plant you can see it by clicking here The recording was made by putting the camera on my windowsill.  Even though it is a breezy day the wall of sound casued by the gravel hitting the hopper is all too apparent about 1min20secs into the clip

    I can only sympathise with you guys – i know what it’s like to have to deal with noise pollution as i live in a city center.

    My advice is just to keep on at the council to get them to declare it’s a noise nusience. Once they’ve done that it should be pretty much downhill from there.

    Who was the bald monkey in the video clips by the way?

    No,only kidding…:)
