EV-003 · Trees

Awaiting verification

Tree failure cluster — X-Area (reported)

Reported cluster of mature trees down within a comparatively concentrated area of woodland, several with exposed root plates. Cause not established: storm windthrow, root-zone saturation, ground settlement and other mechanisms all remain open and require arboricultural and geotechnical assessment.

EV-004 · Ground movement

Awaiting verification

Ground depression reported in woodland

Reported localised depression in the woodland floor. Dimensions not professionally measured. Possible mechanisms include crown-hole formation over historic shallow workings, internal erosion, washout or natural ground movement. No cause established.

Architecture

Layers prepared for future data

The map is built so that additional layers can be added as records are obtained from archives, regulators and professional surveys.

  • Shafts, adits and possible ventilation points
  • Faults, fractures and mineral lodes
  • Boreholes and BGS records
  • Public footpaths and rights of way
  • Photograph locations
  • Laboratory sampling results over time
  • Historic mine-plan overlays
  • Rainfall and groundwater-level overlays
