Default [SkyNews] UK hit by biggest earthquake for a decade

[SkyNews] UK hit by biggest earthquake for a decade
Full story:
https://news.sky.com/story/reasonably-sized-earthquake-strikes-southwest-britain-11254792

A 4.4 magnitude tremor hits South Wales - but its effects are felt as
far away as Liverpool, Birmingham and Cornwall.

Parts of Britain have been struck by the country's biggest earthquake
for 10 years.

The British Geological Survey said the tremor had a 4.4 magnitude, with
a depth of 7.4km, and the epicentre was about 20km north of Swansea.

The quake happened just after 2.30pm on Saturday.

A spokesperson told Sky News it was "reasonably-sized" and that the
effects had been felt as far afield as Devon and Birmingham.
