Staffordshire earthquake causes rumbling and homes to shake
By Susie RackBBC News, West Midlands
Residents reported " rumbling" and rattling windows and doors after a 3. 3 magnitude earthquake hit Staffordshire on Wednesday evening.
The British Geological Survey (BGS) said the tremor's epicentre was 7. 3km (4. 5 miles) below Tean.
It is the largest of 21 earthquakes to strike the UK.
The BGS said people had reported " an initial rumbling, then a bang" with what " felt more like a shunt, like something had hit something".
People As Far as 20km (12. 5 miles) from the epicentre took to Social Media to describe The Effects .
Kelvin Evans, in Upper Tean, said he heard a " very loud, weird, spooky noise, that seemed to vibrate The Front of The House . "
Another Tean resident, Jenni Brown, said she thought a vehicle had veered off The Road and bumped the side of her house.
'A very large shake'Sarah Firth reported " a strange noise and huge vibration" in Alsager, Cheshire and Janet Buckley felt the ground shake in Great Haywood , Stafford.
Mark Begg, 30, said he was At Home in Uttoxeter when he felt " a very large shake".
After checking The House and finding no signs of damage he concluded " it was most likely a mini-earthquake".
Tom, 38, in Cheadle said: " I was sitting watching an episode of Only Connect with My Wife on YouTube and as we opened another bottle of wine the whole house shook.
" I thought either one of The Children had fallen out of bed or Something Else had happened. "
The BGS records and locates between 200 and 300 earthquakes in the UK each year with the majority only detected by sensitive instruments.
The Strongest UK earthquake recorded by the survey was a 6. 1 magnitude tremor in the North Sea , about 75 miles from Great Yarmouth , in June 1931.
