Felt it very clearly in Belle Vue. Strange as I'm also here and didn't feel anything, the first I was aware of it was people talking about it on Facebook

sounds like Wem may have been the centre with a 3.8 magnitude

Was sat in Asda car park. The car shook quite violently, so I naturally thought it was the wind, however, no trees were blowing!!
Haven’t felt one like that for a while!
I was at Belvidere Secondary school when we had quite a bad one. Must have been somewhere around 1989-90 ish?? Left a lot of damage to the building, quite significant cracks!

I’m off work and live in shrews, felt it in the bedroom (not pun intended) - text my boss at work in Telford, they felt nothing, seems epicentre was more north west Shropshire.

Heard a real thud in Grinshill at the time, though didn't notice a tremor. Sounded like the noise when a huge tractor or lorry thunders along the lane but it certainly spooked one of our dogs.
I wondered whether we might have had one a few days ago when one radiator was vibrating rigorously at about 1:30am. Lasted about 30 seconds and no others were affected. I know air in the system can cause such things but the heating's been off for a couple of months and it was several hours after the boiler had been on for hot water. It's an old house so I'm just going to say it's the ghost that our dogs seem to be watching every now and then!

Just been to my daughters at Bayston Hill. She said did you feel the earthquake ? What earthquake said I , didn’t know anything about it , certainly didn’t feel anything here in Bicton Village . She then told me she had felt it and it was being discussed on Facebook . I shall certainly watch the news tonight to discover all about it . Should we be expecting an “ aftershock “ ?

Have you seen anything , felt a presence , experienced a cold draught. You know, the usual . They do say animals can sense paranormal activity . I find it very interesting - tell me more .

I was near Market Drayton, heard nothing.
Doesn't seem to be anything Mr Putin has fired at us anyway, since we are still here.....

Felt nothing in Whitchurch but apparently the earthquake caused £600.000 pounds worth of improvements in Wem.

The Earth certainly did not move for me in Leicestershire! The worst tremor I ever felt was in Manchester in the 1980s (perhaps 1984?) when I was living on the 13th floor of a tower block but when I lived in Joburg for three years they were so regular you did not worry about them.

Have you seen anything , felt a presence , experienced a cold draught. You know, the usual . They do say animals can sense paranormal activity . I find it very interesting - tell me more . Hahaha, I was joking really but we live in a very old house and I've been told by a local of longer standing than me that it's haunted. I can't really say I've seen anything. I'm very much a night owl and there have been moments when I've thought I glimpsed something late at night but I think it was probably just the shadows. I've certainly felt sudden chills but then old houses are draughty and it might just be a physiological thing. Three of the four dogs we've had here (the fourth hasn't been with us very long) have on occasion stared into the same space, never growling, just seeming to watch and listen. But of course that could just be their far more acute hearing or sense of smell. I'm still baffled by the radiator, I admit. If the system's not been on for hours, and the radiator's not been in use for weeks, why would it suddenly vibrate vigorously and noisily - and why weren't other nearby radiators doing so at the same time? I can't explain it. I did think it might be an earth tremor but there was no mention of it next morning. I like to think of myself as an open minded sceptic about this subject - unlike my brother, who loves anything paranormal or whatever it is they call UFOs in those circles!

I remember the Dudley earthquake, late 90s/early 00s?
I vividly remember watching TV (think it was the F1 highlights) and the TV in my room started trembling in participation of what felt like a massive train or vehicle going straight past the house.
The only one I can recall from memory but I do remember a couple of sonic booms that I thought were bombs going off in the sky.
