520 _aReports on problems with house buying and selling specific to the south west region. Cornwall was one of the most intensely mined areas in Europe between the 18th and 20th centuries. Therefore there is an increased risk of subsidence due to old mine workings. Archival Mine Reports and drilling investigations are relatively inexpensive precautions to take. Mundic concrete blocks, made from mine wastes and used for construction before 1950, are common in Cornwall and Devon. They are known to contain materials which deteriorate. Also due to mining, there is an increased incidence of contaminated land in the area.
