A major programme to replace all the windows in council tower blocks in South Bristol is under investigation after residents complained of a loud high-pitched whistling sound that fills their homes whenever it’s windy.
Bristol City Council is working with the contractor it has hired to undertake the work, after residents of one of the first blocks of flats that had new windows fitted - Gaywood House in Bedminster - said the whistling noise was making their lives a misery.
The residents in more than 40 of the 67 flats at the 12-storey Gaywood House, on North Street, said they were affected by the issue, which one couple said was causing health problems.
