House next door construction

Fed up of construction noise from new housing development next door, what can I do?
Constant noise from new housing development from 8 until 6 weekdays and 8 until 1 on a Sat. Constant humming of machinery, beeping of vehicles, rumbling drilling, shouting of builders, sudden angle grinders etc. They are building 85 houses in the field next door. Has been going on for nearly three years and predicted at least one more as another phase to be completed.
Am at end of tether, can't enjoy garden, can hear it all with the windows shut...
Has anyone else been through this and successfully got the noise reduced.
My thoughts are, do I:
- Raise it directly with the developers,
- Raise it with the case manager at the council
- Put in a noise complaint, Environmental health
- Pursue them for loss of enjoyment of property (it's a legal thing I think) in the hope that they will reduce the noise rather than compensation.
Any help appreciated, from a frustrated and annoyed Mumsnetter.

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
