This just popped up on BBC local news, sounds like the CA have been commissioning a load of LIDAR work:

I'd be interested to compare their findings with John Barnatt's work on the coal mines of the western moors (hopefully in Mining History before too long)

Follow the horses, Johnny my laddie, follow the horses canny lad-oh!

We thought we'd unearthed something long forgotten until we approached the farmer. "Oh yes, that's Cae Trenches" he said.

It was part of a R&D project to look at more efficient ways of detecting mine shafts etc in rural areas
