Annotation
Problems with road movement on Rosevears Drive adjacent to McEwans Road were investigated. Although the whole hillside above Rosevears Drive shows obvious evidence of large scale landslipping, the slopes under present climatic conditions appear stable. Road movements on Rosevears Drive are therefore likely to be a local feature related to conditions beneath and immediately adjacent to the road.
