There could have been, many years ago when most of these things were done.
But it didn't happen, and even if it had, it would not make any difference to most people now, because any such payments would have been made to the owners of the land at the time development/mining/whatever was started.
One day, by sheer random chance, you may post those words regarding something which actually does make sense.
This was not that occasion.
It can only happen by sheer random chance because you have shown on
*many* occasions that you idea of "sense" is not one shared by many people.
Grand Designs actually. I watched that specific program on More4 fairly recently.
Why shouldn't it? I can dig a pond or swimming pool. I can dig a column to insert thermal heating ducts or whatever they call them. Why can't I dig indefinitely?
Correct.
Although they would nowadays only get planning permission if they showed that the tunneling would not cause any structural issues to your house or other neighbouring properties.
Say there's some coal under my house. Why should my neighbour have more right to it than me just because she asked first?
??? as you take water water comes from next door to replace what you took which means you are taking next doors water.
That's worrying...
When I worked for an Electricity Board, several decades ago, they were in the process of trying to map the underground distribution network. It mostly relied upon the memories of road gang foremen going back as far as the 1930s. If they had forgotten something it didn't get onto the maps.
compulsory
Probably not, I'd have to read the deeds to make sure on that point. It almost certainly varies depending on whose layers were more on the ball when the deeds were drawn up.

Pretty sure that under our Deeds they would be liable full stop.
Your neighbour has no more right to the coal than you. All she has done is let them have access to dig a hole. She may well get paid but that is for allowing access not for the coal.
Yes:-)
Depends on the land use: you get more for arable than grass. Also depends on size, number of stays etc.
Ditto BT poles. They also pay for buried cable.
Big flurry some years back when there was talk of adding data cable to existing distribution routes.

That was not uncommon. My Dad was one of the people that told them which way to dig to meet up. One was as close as 4ft out over a 5 mile distance - not bad when it was all worked out by hand (or in his casr the back of a cig packet)
Too strong for the southern poofters is Capstan.
She wouldn't.
Why do you believe she might?
I remember reading that the USA was pleased about Sputnik beating them into orbit. That established that the USSR considered it OK to do so without needing any permission from the countries over which it flew. The USA had been concerned the USSR was going to play merry hell if the USA had overflown the USSR.
As you obviously you feel so strongly about this I hope you will ask your local council not to put salt on your roads this winter as it has been taken from under people's houses without their permission

Call me stupid, but why don't we put it into volcanoes?
Isn't it illegal for anything to approach the USA without their permission? They have tourist mania. Oops, I pronounced it like an American. I meant terrorist mania.
Fuck me but you're *stoopid*. Ever noticed what volcanoes do, eh? They shovel shit *upwards*.
