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.

    County Durham Joint Strategic Needs Assessment 2014 Summary Document Contents Section Page No. 1. Introduction 3 2. Life in County Durham 4 3. Wider Determinants of Health 13 4. Children and Young People (0-17) 23 5. People of Working Age (18-64) 33 6. People of Retirement Age (65+) 41 7. Glossary / Abbreviations 45 8. Contact Details 46 2 Introduction The 2014 Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) Summary Document has been developed to highlight key messages with regard to the health and wellbeing needs of the people of County Durham. The full JSNA 2014 is available on the Durham County Council website www.durham.gov.uk/jsna and should be read in conjunction with the JSNA 2014 Summary Document, as it contains the supporting data and narrative for the key messages presented in this summary document. The key messages for the JSNA 2014 Summary Document are presented under the following headings as part of a ‘Life Course’ approach: Life in Durham Wider Determinants of Health Children and Young People (0-17) People of Working Age (18-64) People of Retirement Age (65+) The concept behind a life course model is that the needs of individuals and groups, and the best ways to meet those needs, change over the course of a lifetime. As a person grows older, the health behaviours adopted, and environmental factors encountered, accumulate. This means that each individual has a unique and complex series of influences, both positive and negative, on their health and wellbeing. The benefit of the life course approach is that it encourages thinking around the broad range of factors which impact on health at different stages of life and promotes an integrated strategic approach across the County Durham Partnership, consisting of the Children and Families Partnership, Health & Wellbeing Board, Safe Durham Partnership, Environment Partnership and the Economic Partnership.
