Download the interpretative report which looks at the ground investigations carried out at the Jackfield and the Lloyds areas of Ironbridge. Which was also produced at the same time.

In December 2008 our geotechnical consultants Jacobs undertook a geomorphological mapping exercise of the Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site (WHS) to cover the remaining areas of the WHS not covered by the High Point Rendel report. Download the geomorphological mapping exercise for general information and and guidance on ground stability conditions throughout the Gorge.
