Mining Remediation Authority abandoned coal mine plans collection

The dataset comprises of the plans of abandoned coal mines in Great Britain deposited with the Mining Remediation Authority (MRA) and held on behalf of the Health and Safety Executive in line with the 1872 Coal Mines Regulation Act and Metalliferous Mines Regulation Act. The physical plans are held by the MRA and a digital copy of the index to and scans of these plans was deposited to the British Geological Survey (BGS) for delivery through the BGS mine plans viewer. BGS also holds an incomplete disaster recovery copy of the microfiche of the statutory mine abandonment plans for the MRA.
