House next door construction

What to expect living next to a building site?
There is a plot of land which has recently been sold with PP to build a house. It is on the other side of my NDN, but a corner plot on the next street.
The streets are a mixture of terraces, semi detached and the street the house is on leads to a culdesac with terrace bungalows so it is quite a crowded area with lots of cars parked on the road. The plot isn’t very big, it is just a corner plot split into two.
The PP documents say the build will need to start within 3 years from approval (2017), so I am not sure if that has been extended due to covid, or the sale date (September 2020) but I guess it will be starting pretty soon, unless the buyer needs to reapply for planning at this stage, I’m not entirely sure how it works.
The thought of living so close to a building site leaves me feeling really bleak. Even though it’s a crowded area, it’s fairly quiet and very pleasant.
I knew the plot was for sale a couple of years ago, but I didn’t know about the planning application when we bought this house 4 years ago. The planning app was submitted around the same time, so it’s possible that any notification was addressed to the previous owner, which I wouldn’t have read. I didn’t see anything else. It didn’t come up in the searche

My neighbour’s construction work is driving me mad – what do I do?
For the past eight months, my mental health has slowly crumbled.
My neighbour’s extension has interrupted all of my weekdays: from waking up my one-year-old, to forcing me to cancel work and social plans.
The constant fear of not knowing what will happen next makes me feel anxious, and sometimes paranoid.
My pleas to my neighbours have got me nowhere, and during night feeds I often cry along with my baby.
I found out about my neighbour’s extension plans as soon as I moved into my house with my boyfriend in April 2021. I didn’t object to the planning permission as I think it’s fine to revamp your property – especially since we’re no strangers to repair work ourselves.
I regret it so much now.
Our house is old and damp, so we had the walls repointed, a new roof, replastering and repair work on the plumbing and electrics. It was slightly disruptive but each job only took between a few hours, a few days and a couple of weeks over the space of seven months, with several weeks between jobs.
I gave my neighbours regular updates, but they said they didn’t mind as they both worked full-time.
Later, they said they were having some work done and told us that they were applying for p
