Barry,
At least one level, Hebden Horse Level just below the village, in Yorkshire
was used (and might still be in use) as a fish farm. I sometimes use the
example of a mine explorer damaging the local fish farm as a case which
might test the current UK underground insurance scheme to its limits.
Please don't be that mine explorer!
