Safety works complete on large sinkhole found in farmer’s field
Mining Remediation Authority responds after collapse reported in Stretton, Derbyshire.
The Mining Remediation Authority was called after the surface hazard, about 4 metres in diameter and 3 metres deep, was discovered in May.
The site was made safe, with fences and signage, and a search of our records suggested the collapse was over a shallow roadway leading from a historical mine entry to the abandoned Strathfield colliery.
