Miner unplaceable in area

Not sure why I can't place a miner here. Seems like a bug. I can place miners around it, but not in 2x2 block square. It's like something is blocking it, but there's nothing there.

It turned out this was what happened. Thanks for the help. For the life of me, I couldn't spot a water area.

I've seen this in several bug reports here - could you somehow either make it visible that it's water or make it land in the migration?
