Category C and D Disused Coal Tips in Wales

This dataset was last updated in October 2024.

This dataset shows the locations and boundaries of disused coal tips that have been assigned a rating of C or D using an interim category system. C and D rated tips reflect tips may need more frequent inspections to assess drainage and stability. A C or D rating does not mean that the tip is at imminent risk.

From Autumn 2024 this dataset will include an attribute that shows the last date a disused coal tip has been inspected. The data will be refreshed twice annually (once in the spring and once in the autumn) to align with the continuing programme of inspections for category C and D disused tips.

This dataset is part of a programme of work to review and improve coal tip safety in Wales being delivered by Welsh Government and its partners.
