UK Sea and Land Maps
FIL hold charts of the most of the UK sea and land dumping grounds used since 1850 and of the World's Allied wartime sea/land-minded areas (including in some fields the number of mines laid and method of lay, surface ship, submarine or aircraft dropped).
UK Land
In soft alluvial ground conditions bombs could have penetrated to depths of up to 13 metres.
Approximately 10% of bombs and 50% of incendiary devices that were dropped failed to explode.
Unexploded munitions become more sensitive to detonation with age becoming a major risk during intrusive engineering operations.
UK Sea
Most military explosives do not hydrolyse but become more sensitive with age and chemical change.
Weapons from both World Wars still lie dormant upon the seabed waiting to fulfill their designed function - to explode, cause extensive damage to shipping, subsea structures and kill.
Weapons migrate many miles along the seabed in any strong tideway and when assisted by ground trawling operations.
