Mine Searches Tin Mine Search

These are concise, factual reports concerning a property’s mining history.  The Law Society recognised potential risks to property from historic mine workings and for almost two decades has required a mine search as part of the property conveyancing process.  Our reference material is unequalled - the Consultancy owns the CROFTY ARCHIVE, the largest and most comprehensive private collection of industrial mine plans in the South West, together with over 10,000 plans on microfiche.

We have completed more than 29,000 individual mine searches in Cornwall alone.

Standard report turnaround is 48 hours.  Urgent reports can be turned around by return.  If mining features are identified beneath a particular property, a concise plan is drafted of the workings and, if necessary, recommendations are made as to how any identified problems can be dealt with.
