Mine shafts and adits can exist beneath or near your proposed building footprint without obvious signs at ground level. If you’re developing in a former coalfield, a Coal Mining Risk Assessment helps confirm whether legacy risks need managing.
Common Hazards Identified:
- Collapsible ground from historic shallow mining
- Open or poorly capped mine entries
- Gas migration from underground voids
- Ground movement affecting building stability
What a Coal Mining Risk Assessment Provides
We gather detailed data from the Coal Authority, historical maps, geological surveys, and other records. Our report includes:
- Summary of known coal mining features
- Assessment of associated risks
- Recommendations for further investigation (if needed)
This report forms an essential part of your due diligence and planning application.
