The report describes the study of the landslides and mass movement processes that have affected the geological formations in the Glossop district. Described in particular detail are the landslides of Longdendale, which form some of the most significant and interesting landslides of the district. The work was done in association with the geological mapping team Bob Addison, Colin Waters, Don Aldiss, Ed Hough and Gisela Ager, who are thanked for their assistance in understanding the geological context of the area and for the many helpful discussions that took place during the project. Acknowledgements In addition to the BGS staff acknowledged in the Foreword, many individuals in and outside BGS have freely given their advice, and provided the local knowledge to the project and we would like to thank them for their assistance. The authors of this report would also like to thank A Gibson and K Northmore for their advice and constructive comments, during the drafting of this report. Paul Turner is also thanked for his help and advice with aerial photography used during the detailed Longdendale investigations. From the drawing office, Paul Lappage and Jane Smalley are thanked for their assistance with the cross sections. i IR/05/26; Draft 0.1 Last modified: 2019/02/18 17:35 Contents Foreword ......................................................................................................................................... i Acknowledgements ......................................................................................................................... i Contents .......................................................................................................................................... ii Summary ........................................................................................................................................ 1 1 Introduction ............................................................................................................................ 2 2 Geology .................................................................................................................................... 3 2.1 Solid ................................................................................................................................ 3 2.2 Structure .......................................................................................................................... 9 2.3 Superficial Deposits ........................................................................................................ 9 2.4 Geomorphology ............................................................................................................ 11 2.5 Hydrogeology ............................................................................................................... 13 2.6 Landuse ......................................................................................................................... 14 3 Remote Sensing..................................................................................................................... 16 3.1 Air Photos ..................................................................................................................... 16 3.2 Next Map Shaded Relief ............................................................................................... 17 4 Field Investigations .............................................................................................................. 18 4.1 Longdendale Valley Landslide Assessment ................................................................. 18 4.2 Crowden Valley ............................................................................................................ 22 4.3 Regional Landslides ...................................................................................................... 23 5 Landslide processes in the Glossop District ....................................................................... 26 5.1 Slope Behaviour Units: the theory ................................................................................ 26 5.2 SBU Assessment of the landslides of the Glossop district ........................................... 26 6 Landslide Distribution ......................................................................................................... 29 7 Conclusions ........................................................................................................................... 31 8 References ............................................................................................................................. 32 Appendix 1 Proforma sheets used during field and remote survey .................................... 1 Appendix 2 New landslide records in the NLDB .................................................................. 4 Appendix 3 Schematic cross sections produced for a selection of surveyed landslides. ... 5 ii IR/05/26; Draft 0.1 Last modified: 2019/02/18 17:35 FIGURES Figure 2.1 - General regional geology of the Glossop District. ...................................................... 3 Figure 2.2 - 1:50 000 Solid Geology of the Glossop District (Legend used is BGS_Lex_Rock) .. 4 Figure 2.3 - Generalised vertical sections of Namurian strata across the Pennines (Aitkenhead et al., 2002). .................................................................................................................................. 5 Figure 2.4 - Generalised vertical sections of Westphalian strata across the Pennines (Aitkenhead et al., 2002). .............................................................................................................................. 6 Figure 2.5 - Generalised vertical sections of

    31-1-2017 Trans Pennine

    Public Agenda Item No. 8(i) DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL CABINET 31 January 2017 Report of the Strategic Director – Economy, Transport and Communities TRANS-PENNINE HIGHWAY PROJECTS (HIGHWAYS, TRANSPORT AND INFRASTRUCTURE) (1) Purpose of Report To update Cabinet on a number of projects relating to highway links across the South Pennines and to recommend a County Council policy statement on these. (2) Information and Analysis There are currently a number of inter- related pieces of work being undertaken on existing and potential roads across the South Pennines. Essentially, these are a combination of Highways England’s management and maintenance programmes for the strategic road network and priorities for highways improvement emerging from Transport for the North (TfN), which is the sub-national transport body for the north of England. Cabinet will be aware that, in terms of governance, Derbyshire sits within the equivalent Midlands Connect sub-national transport body, but there are clearly strong relationships between the two entities in relation to economic geography and travel. Worthy of note is the considerable amount of work underway relating to connections between Manchester and Sheffield, which inevitably pass through Derbyshire. The key current areas of work on trans-Pennine roads are: • The Mottram Bypass and A57(T) to A57 Link Road The Road Investment Strategy (RIS) which sets out the work of Highways England for the period up to the year 2020-21 includes major schemes which are expected to begin construction during the RIS period. The Mottram Bypass would carry the Trunk Road around the village of Mottram-in-Longdendale (in Tameside) and provide a link between this and the A57 Principal Road near Woolley Bridge in Derbyshire.

    Land Off Brook Hill Lane, Dunford Bridge, Barnsley, Sheffield

    2019/1013 Applicant: National Grid Description: Planning application for National Grid's Visual Impact Provision (VIP) project involving the following works:1) Construction of a new sealing end compound, including permanent access; 2) Construction of a temporary haul road from Brook Hill Lane including widened bellmouth; 3) Construction of a temporary Trans Pennine Trail Diversion to be used for approximately 12 - 18 months; following construction approximately 410m of said diversion surface would be retained permanently; and 4) Erection of two bridges (one temporary and one permanent) along the Trans Pennine Trail diversion Site Address: Land off Brook Hill Lane, Dunford Bridge, Barnsley, Sheffield Site Description The site stretches from Dunford Bridge in the Peak District National Park to Wogden Foot LWS approximately 1.8km to the east. With the exception of the sealing end compounds at either end, the site is linear and broadly follows the route of the Trans Pennine Trail (TPT). At Dunford Bridge the site extends to the former rail tunnel entrance and includes the existing sealing end compound located behind properties on Don View. Beyond this is the TPT car park and the TPT itself which is a former rail line running from Dunford Bridge to Penistone; now utilised as a bridleway. The site takes in land adjacent the TPT along which a temporary diverted bridleway route is proposed. In addition, Wogden Foot, a Local Wildlife Site (LWS) located 1.8km to the east is included (in part) as the proposed location of a new sealing end compound; construction access to this from Windle Edge also forms part for the application.

On 1 September 1987 we wrote to the Metropolitan Borough of Tameside announcing our intention to undertake a review of Tameside as part of our review of the Metropolitan County of Greater Manchester and its Metropolitan Districts under section 48(1) of the Local Government Act 1972. Copies of the letter were sent to the county and district councils bordering the Metropolitan Borough and to parish councils in the adjoining districts; to the Local Authority Associations; the Members of Parliament with constituency interests; and the headquarters of the main political parties. In addition, copies were sent to those government departments, regional health authorities, port authorities, and statutory undertakers which might have an interest, as well as to the English Tourist Board, the local government press and the local television and radio stations serving the area. 2. The Metropolitan Borough of Tameside was requested, in co- operation as necessary with the other principal authorities, to assist us in publishing the start of the review by inserting a notice for two successive weeks in local newspapers so as to give a wide coverage in the areas concerned.

    1 WALK.5. BLEAKLOW.5. 19.7 miles 5 hours 50 minutes. Map Dark Peak. “Reproduced by kind permission of Ordnance Survey.” Crown copyright NC/02/30874. Start at the A57, where the Pennine way crosses the road. There is no car park at this point, just enough room, at the side of the road at (088929), for a few cars (the early birds). Take the Pennine way, going N from the road to a good ladder stile. Follow a firm path, paved for some of its route; this used to be very boggy. Gathering Hill is to your left. Go NE over Alport Low (098945); (‘Low’ Anglo-Saxon for ‘hill’). You then meet Hern Clough, which you follow until Hern Stone is seen, a large stone; you wonder how it got there. Go due N to Bleaklow Head; this section is very boggy in wet weather; this is Wain Stones. Keep N for about 600 yards; there are some stakes to guide you, then turn left, going W down Wildboar Grain (a small stream), dropping down to cross a stream at John Track Well (081964). Still on the Pennine Way, the path climbs the other side of the clough, then goes NW past Torside Castle on your left, along Clough Edge, which is high above Torside Clough, a fine, dramatic viewpoint on a clear day. The path descends to a footpath sign, then a big ladder stile and rough track, down to level ground near a farm. Take the farm drive, going N of W down to the road via a wicket gate at a cattle grid.
