Residents of two streets in a Clackmannanshire village facing mining subsidence have been told their homes will have to be demolished.

Meetings were held with residents of Coalsnaughton on Thursday evening where 97 properties have been evacuated due to ground movement.

Officials from the local council and the Mining Remediation Authority (MRA) told them that 60 houses on two streets, Benbuck View and Dunmoss View, would have to be knocked down.

Remediation work will be carried out on two other affected streets to make them safe, the residents were told.

Homeowners will be offered compensation payments but some of those who attended the meetings told BBC Scotland News there was uncertainty about how much they would receive.

The MRA confirmed that there had been a meeting with people affected by the subsidence, and said it would be releasing a more detailed statement on Friday.

Some 256 residents in four streets in the former mining village were moved out of their homes after ground movement was discovered in May.

An eight-week investigation by the MRA confirmed that the issue, which saw cracks appear in roads, paths, and homes, was related to historical mining work.

Alan Cameron, chairman of the Coalsnaughton Evacuees Residents Group, said residents had now been told that 46 properties in Benbuck View and Dunmoss View, the worst affected streets, were damaged beyond repair.

Another 14 properties were likely to be further damaged by future ground movement, he said.

The ground movement is considered less serious in two other streets, Langour and Nechtan Drive, and the officials believe it will be possible to repair them.

The displaced residents include a mixture of private owners and Kingdom Housing Association tenants.
