The gazetteer provides the list of places that may require a coal mining and brine subsidence claim search report based on the coal mining reporting area. You can also use the Coal Authority’s interactive map viewer.
The coal mining reporting area, also known as CON29M Coal and Brine Consultation Areas, is the known extent of coal mining activity and is used to determine whether a coal mining report is required for property transactions and the conveyance process. This area does not represent the full extent of geological coal reserves and resources.
You can use the Coal Authority’s property search service for the most accurate information available.
