St Werburgh Street Subsidence

St Werburgh Street is looking in a poorly way at the moment, with a variety of repairs being carried out. At the top end of the street, stretching from the Halifax in St Werburghs Row to the war memorial, the road is sinking due to an infilled quarry underneath. The pillar in the bottom photo has sunk by 15cm in the last 10 years. At the bottom end of the street, where it connects to Eastgate St, there is a dip in the road due to buried cellars. And in the middle, at St Werburghs Mount, props are holding up the buildings whilst owners investigate the cause.
