Statement

The source data is the BGS corporate borehole materials database. The dataset has been compared to the publically released top and base Bowland-Hodder surfaces (Andrews et al., 2013) and materials extracted that fall within this depth interval. A 200 m lateral buffer was then applied to the Bowland-Hodder surfaces to account for data excluded through pixellation of the dataset. A reduced number of fields when compared to the original borehole materials database has been prepared, comprising borehole identifiers (Borehole name, Ordnance Survey quarter sheet, registration number), material held (Material, top metres, base metres) and locational data (British National Grid easting and northing).
