It might be worth a pre-emptive strike. We had problems with our neighbour, and since we'd already been reported by him for dogs barking (whilst I was away lambing with said dogs!) we knew that he'd toddle off to the authorities. I rang up the council, arranged a meeting with the appropriate person, he came out (with a couple of colleagues), I fed them tea and lots of cake, explained that I was concerned because we'd taken all steps to not be a nuisance but this one neighbour wasn't happy with us. Could they suggest anything we could do? They said they were happy that we were trying to go about our business without upsetting people and told me not to worry. Never heard anything more about it.
Sometimes if you get in first and ask the authorities for help, you show that you're a reasonable person and the other person isn't. Especially if they then go in ranting.
