Case B: Barfs Road, Distington

England · Evidence date 2026-08-21 · AI draft for senior consultant review

Research prototype — draft technical interpretation for professional review.

Case reconstructed from publicly available planning documents. Independent research prototype; not affiliated with or endorsed by the original report authors. Historical/source-selected criteria require applicability review. This draft provides no regulatory approval, professional sign-off or certified design. Gas, radon, controlled-waters and other specialist decisions may need further expert assessment.

Case evidence and context

Draft contamination interpretation and next actions; flag ground-condition interfaces, no foundation design.

Scope/development B-F01

Approximately 2.57 ha managed grass/public open space at Barfs Road, Distington, proposed 61 residential dwellings with private gardens and soft landscaping.

History B-F02

Housing established by mid-1940s; demolished early 2000s. Potential demolition/fill sources include ash, coal, brick, concrete and former services. Adjacent southwest garage on 1961-1988 mapping; smithy about 9 m southeast on 1898 mapping.

Off-site sources B-F03

Barfs Quarry about 104 m northwest; historical landfill about 139 m west; railway cuttings nearby. Records include inert, household, commercial and industrial waste. These are potential sources, not demonstrated contaminant migration onto this site.

Geology B-F04

Mapped glacial till over First Limestone with Hensingham Grit in southeastern tip. Bedrock not reached during this investigation. Logs contain clay, sand lenses and variable fill.

Hydrogeology and conflicting records B-F05

B01 geology section reports bedrock Secondary A and till Secondary Undifferentiated; its CSM and B02 describe bedrock as Principal. Both statements are retained unresolved. Distington Beck about 111 m east, partly culverted; no abstraction within 1 km, potable abstraction within 2 km, or SPZ on/within 500 m reported.

Radon context B-F06

Mapped radon potential 10%-30% of homes above action level across most of site.

Coordinate records B-F07

Phase 1 gives site NGR 422563,601960. Phase 2 borehole coordinates cluster around 300600E,523800N. These records conflict; do not silently geolocate using the Phase 1 number.

Investigation B-F08

15 windowless-sample boreholes; logs dated 13-15 May 2026. Five gas/water wells: WS02/04/08/12/14. Eighteen soil lab IDs, including paired depths at several locations; eight hydrocarbon/BTEX suites and six soil leachates. Lab sample dates all 15 May 2026; preserve difference from some drilling dates.

Ground observations B-F09

Typical made ground about 0.30-1.40 m, often with topsoil, demolition debris and local relic topsoil. WS02 instead records made ground to 3.70 m and a void 3.70-4.90 m, with no natural ground proved. Origin unconfirmed. No fuel/oil staining, odour, free product or visible asbestos recorded.

Water B-F10

Water strikes WS06 at 3.00 m (standing 2.13 m), WS11 at 3.64 m. Water in lenses may be discontinuous; five visits include dry, wet and obstructed wells. Raw monitoring table records levels and purging notes. No groundwater chemistry certificate supplied; soil leachate is a distinct test matrix.

Monitoring design/status B-F11

Original desk-study monitoring design specified at least six visits over at least three months. Supplied record has five visits, 12 June-27 July 2026. Some wells could not be located or measured. Instrument: GFM436 gas analyser with flow pod; field notes specify minimum three minutes, five for initially high readings.

Screening configuration B-F12

Human-health configuration is residential with homegrown produce. Source selects 6% SOM for organic criteria, informed by average total organic carbon; TOC and SOM remain different measured/assumed fields. S4UL, C4SL and ATRISK values are source-selected. Controlled-waters criteria are copied only as benchmark configuration; statutory applicability and compliance point have not been independently validated.

Laboratory QA B-F13

Chemtech 26-06051; eighteen samples marked non-deviating in certificate. Per-result units, method codes, LoDs, accreditation and n/t retained. No independent field QA chain supplied in the normalized pack.

B02 · source PDF pages 122, 140, 141, 142 · reported_fact

Ground features B-F14

Local soft/wet till, sand lenses, and a peat parting around 1.13 m in WS08. Coal mining search records no workings beneath site; local limestone dissolution features exist, including reported swallow hole about 140 m southeast.

Guidance used

LCRM1: England planning scope. Develop and update source–pathway–receptor linkages. Use preliminary, generic and detailed assessment proportionately. Generic screening exceedance alone does not establish unacceptable risk. Review scenario, matrix, exposure, chemistry, SOM and sampling coverage before interpreting a comparison.

LCRM2: For relevant linkages consider proportionate options, feasibility, objectives and alternatives. Targeted investigation must name the decision it resolves; do not prescribe blanket excavation from isolated exceedances.

LCRM3: A strategy is not completion evidence. Define performance objectives and applicable criteria, a verification plan with appropriate sampling/inspection and material records, contingencies for unexpected conditions, and a completion report supported by the implemented works. Numerical design requirements need competent selection.

TECH: Gas investigation and protection require specialist assessment against applicable BS8576, BS8485 and CIRIA guidance; radon is a separate BR211 question. Licensed clauses and numerical rules are not implemented. Do not assign final gas class or radon protection from maps alone. Groundwater assessment needs a migration model and compliance point; leachate is not groundwater. Waste classification, WAC, topsoil quality and concrete aggressivity are separate assessments.
