The stabilisation scheme started in 2014 and resulted in the construction of a new section of road and rebuilding of this path, itself part of the former Severn Valley Railway. The metal poles just visible to the right are rows of reinforced steel piles acting as buried walls holding up the hillside. The mine workings beneath had previously been filled with grout via a grid network of boreholes.
