I would like to see a photo of the Acklington Dyke exposed in the opencast pit at Radcliffe. Now that would be something to see.
The only picture I have of a decent igneous dyke around here is the one at Boulmer, straight as a die going out to sea. I've marked the edges, as its hard to work out what's going on with weathered geology like this. I guess its about 20- 30 metres wide, might even be the one we passed through a whittle. here's a photo with some people in it to give it scale: |

Structures like this are all 'knowns' with regard to modern mining with its seismic surveys etc., but in earlier times it must have been a shocker hitting something like this out of the blue!

I have noticed that since they stopped pumping water out at hauxley the road on approach to amble from radcliffe at the conways farm is dipping dramaticaly.it was fixed a while back but is just about back to what it was.

There was a drilling rig there last time it was fixed, would be interested to know what they found.

As has been mentioned in a previous post this may or may not be attributed to Radcliffe workings, Hauxley not to blame. I have also noticed this subsidence which has become more pronounced this last few weeks. It would be interesting to see the results of the boring.

They drill then pressure grout into these subsidence areas as well which might explain a drill rig. (If they did it didn't work!)
