Not sure if this is in the right section, but here goes!
Can anything be done about clay pigeon shooting just over the hedge from grazing horses?
I am not anti-shooting but am anti-inconsiderate neighbours. I have one of the latter! What's more, he is on steroids which increases aggression and the last time we had a face to face I was told, "It's my land and I'll do what I want on it". I've tried the police but they tell me he is not doing anything illegal which may be true in criminal law but I am not so sure about civil law.
So, has anyone experienced this nuisance and has had a successful outcome? Each time he has a shoot there are horses within 100m. On the previous occasion they were heavily in-foal mares. If I knew when he was going to have a shoot, I could move them. But he wouldn't bother to tell me that, would he? After all, it's his land and he'll do what he likes on it!
