  • Nenthead Mine Water Treatment Scheme - How we selected the site

    This section explains how we selected the Nenthead mine site as our preferred location for the mine water treatment ponds. This follows a lengthy assessment process where a large number of sites were considered. We consider several criteria when identifying a potential site for a treatment scheme. These can include engineering factors as well as the proximity to residential properties and the ecological or archaeological sensitivity of sites. For the Nenthead site, we have changed the... More

  • Corsham Flood Risk Management Improvements on the Byde Mill Brook Information Page

    The Byde Mill Brook currently flows through a culvert (pipe) underneath many properties in Corsham. The amount of water it can hold is limited and, due to its age, is in need of repair. This summer (2021) we have begun work on considering flood management options for the Byde Mill Brook area, in the centre of Corsham. This is called an appraisal process. The work will tell us of the extent of any problems, both now and in the future, as well as considering what may be... More

  • Nenthead Mine Water Treatment Scheme - How a treatment scheme works

    How would a treatment scheme work? Mine water would be captured at the Caplecleugh and Rampgill levels before it goes into the River Nent. The mine water would be pumped through a small buried pipeline up to the treatment ponds near the Handsome Mea reservoir. Metals are removed from the mine water by encouraging naturally occurring geochemical, microbiological and ecological processes to take place in a reactive media layer on the base of lined treatment ponds. Sulphates present in... More

  • Nent Mine Water Treatment Scheme - Pollution of rivers by metals in the Tyne catchment

    The River Nent is the second most metal polluted river in England, and the most polluted in northern England. This pollution by cadmium, lead and zinc comes from several different sources and the effects on water and sediment quality, and aquatic life can be seen for 60km along the River South Tyne and in the Tyne Estuary. Pollution of rivers by metal mines in the Tyne catchment. Although most mining activity had stopped by the mid-20th century, more than 150km of... More

  • Nenthead Mine Water Treatment Scheme - Preventing Pollution in the Nent and South Tyne

    There are two types of pollution that need to be addressed to improve the water quality of the Rivers Nent and South Tyne. We need to tackle: point sources of pollution which involves removing dissolved metals from mine water before it reaches the watercourses and, diffuse sources of pollution, which includes preventing metal contaminated materials, such as from old spoil heaps, washing or eroding into rivers Tackling point source pollution Monitoring of the River...

We are talking to the Nenthead Mines Conservation Society and Historic England to understand whether improvements can be made whilst also protecting the important industrial archaeology. ... More
