  • Geometry of the Butterknowle Fault at Bishop Auckland (County Durham, UK), from Gravity Survey and Structural Inversion
    ESSOAr | https:/doi.org/10.1002/essoar.10501104.1 | CC_BY_NC_ND_4.0 | First posted online: Mon, 11 Nov 2019 01:27:37 | This content has not been peer reviewed. Geometry of the Butterknowle Fault at Bishop Auckland (County Durham, UK), from gravity survey and structural inversion Rob Westaway 1,*, Sean M. Watson 1, Aaron Williams 1, Tom L. Harley 2, and Richard Middlemiss 3 1 James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow, James Watt (South) Building, Glasgow G12 8QQ, UK. 2 WSP, 70 Chancery Lane, London WC2A 1AF, UK. 3 School of Physics, University of Glasgow, Kelvin Building, Glasgow G12 8QQ, UK. * Correspondence: [email protected]; Abstract: The Butterknowle Fault is a major normal fault of Dinantian age in northern England, bounding the Stainmore Basin and the Alston Block. This fault zone has been proposed as a source of deep geothermal energy; to facilitate the design of a geothermal project in the town of Bishop Auckland further investigation of its geometry was necessary and led to the present study. We show using three-dimensional modelling of a dense local gravity survey, combined with structural inversion, that this fault has a ramp-flat-ramp geometry, ~250 m of latest Carboniferous / Early Permian downthrow having occurred on a fault surface that is not a planar updip continuation of that which had accommodated the many kilometres of Dinantian extension. The gravity survey also reveals relatively low-density sediments in the hanging-wall of the Dinantian fault, interpreted as porous alluvial fan deposits, indicating that a favourable geothermal target indeed exists in the area.

  • St John's Chapel Closed but the Facades Are Still Visible Along Hood Street Giving the Impression of a Once Busy Village
    W A NETWORK OF WALKS OFF THE WEARDALE WAY Outer route: 7 miles/11km Starting from Each village loop approximately St John’s Chapel 3 miles/5km or Ireshopeburn The Forest of Weardale Our walks take us through the ‘forest’ of Weardale, an area set aside by the Prince Bishops of Durham in the early Norman period for the hunting of roe and red deer and boar. It was an uncultivated wilderness of open fell on the uplands with wooded valley sides and floor and very little, if any, settlement. red deer Apart from the steep sided tributary denes there is little sign today of the medieval woodland. Deforestation began from mid 13th century when the Bishop created a walled deer park further down the valley, allowing land in upper Weardale to be leased out for cattle farming and mining. Initially the valley floor land was The F leased out to stockmen who cleared irst Farms the woodland to create meadow and pasture for cattle, deer and sheep. Place names such as Daddry Shield, Hunshieldford and Saugh Shield remind us that these were summer only farms or ‘shielings’. From time to time attempts have been made to grow root crops and grain in upper Weardale but the cool wet upland climate severely limits the growing season and today’s farming activities are still dominated by the rearing of beef cattle and sheep together with the growing of hay as winter feed. Hay Meadows Traditional farming methods, including the late cutting of hay and use of manure helped to preserve Upper Weardale hay meadows, which are now regarded as an important landscape feature supporting many species of wild flowers and upland breeding birds.
