Residents protest against noisy students

RESIDENTS who haven’t slept for months because of their ‘neighbours from hell’ have mounted a picket outside the rented house on the edge of Waterford city to vent their anger.

Residents protest against noisy students

They began the protest outside the house in Lismore Park on Tuesday. One couple say their life over the past seven years has been “a living hell” because of the noise and nuisance caused by those in the house. Paddy and Kay McDonnell say their lives have been made “a misery” by a succession of troublesome students next door. The couple have lived in Lismore Park for 36 years and claim their problems only began when the adjoining house was first rented out to students seven years ago.

Kay said: “Our lives have turned into a nightmare because of these students. There are up to nine living there at this stage and they couldn’t care less.
