QGIS » QGIS Application

I am processing a series of shapefiles (from OS Open Map - Local in the UK) using an expression (see below) to pick out a rectangle of features, so that I can Copy/Paste to new vector layers and concentrate on a small area around my village. Some work fine, but others cause QGIS to abort during the selection with a minidump (2 attached).

I suspect it might be because there were no features in the shapefile within the rectangle, because all the ones I expected to have features within the rectangle worked OK.

Expression used: (xmin($geometry) < 537114.565 and xmax($geometry)>532059.373) and (ymin($geometry) <274187.017 and ymax($geometry) >269687.748)
