I've known about this for quite some time, but haven't need allowed to say a word!
Arcadia wont be any smaller than in 2011, as far as I'm aware, they'll be using the same big rig although I'd imagine that it will be the one that they used at Boomtown Fair as there was no stage on it just a DJ booth, see video below.
I think it will be in the red square, in pic link below, whether the Queens Head Bar and all of those Market stalls will be there time will tell. The other option would be to put it where the camping is on the left, although not sure how practical it would be.
As for noise laws I don't know really. I guess the Other Stage & Main Stage the speakers are set up to make the sound travel back the field. Where as the speaker set up for Arcadia is to have stacks of speakers all around the 'spider' pointing inwards, so I guess the sound would travel less.
The reason they can have the music so late in the 'Naughty Corner' is from what I understand they pay the residents down that end not to make a complaint about noise.
Red Square? NOOOOES! What about the Glade stage, etc? One of the oldest and best secondary stages.
To the East of the hedge bordering the red square where the Function One, Spirit of '71 stage was in 2011 might work. But then with Dance Village changing, maybe they're also changing the Oxlyers camping area.
Glade & Arcadia could and probably will exist together. Glade has speaker stacks and the front and back so if you are in the middle you get immersed in sound, so shouldn't get so much bleed.
