Apparently it started in the yard of 536 Manchester Rd.The Coal Authority may not have detailed plans of the workings. You can go to view what they have at the Mining Record Office by appointment. They have a website.
The last thing they will do tho is admit liability for this major subsidence,It becomes a long drawn out legal matter.They are supposed to have historical liability for pre 1947 workings but in practice they will do their best to get out of that liability (No surprise there then).
