MAIN BODY
Tort of Private Nuisance is majorly the interference on the personal property of the plaintiff
or the nuisance created by the party that affect the enjoyment of their property. It generally takes
the three elements on which the private nuisance is being undertaken they are like, firstly the
encroachment which is addressed on the land of the neighbour or the possessory interest which is
seen on the land of the other party. Secondly there is direct claiming and the physical injury on
the land of the owner in which they will apply the general effect on the enjoyment of the land
and the property by the act performed by the defendant on the property. Thirdly there is,
interference which is made by the other party on the private land of the person. All such
inconvenience, annoying and the offensive interference which are made by any if the party and
has created either the physical change in the property or the financial loss, and the harm which is
made to them is continuous and seen to be ongoing will obstruct the patience and the normal
working of the defendant then this will merely affect the person and their work and will amount
to private nuisance.(Chamallas, 2018).

Some of the potential defences which are been taken by the person in all such cases where
the private nuisance has taken place is mainly the nuisance which are taken for the public good,
all such nuisance that are taken for the act of another or majorly the issues which are being made
due to some other person, plaintiff’s own fault in the case is also the main issue and the
reasonable care which is taken by the defendants. As in the case of, Jost v. Dairyland Power
Cooperative (1969) court held that, burning coal is not any kind of suitable activity especially
close to the farm country as this can affect the farm, of the person and also make them to trouble
by creating issue in their private land. As in this case scenario Lady Whistledown was holding a
concert as Summer of Love Carnival and that affected the sleep pf the neighbours due to music
playing whole night and also her negligence of letting 100 doves released from the wicker basket
and created the private nuisance on the property of Lady Danbury by physical damage in the
property and also to her niece who was allergic to birds simply provides that there is private
nuisance observed by her part and she will have to suffer the loss made by her to neighbour.
