Ludlow in Shropshire felt a 2.5 Richter scale earthquake at 1:16pm today, and an earthquake monitoring site to the south west of Wrexham at Foel Wylfa picked up the tremor.

The British Geological Society monitoring station is around the Ceiriog Valley, and was used to triangulate the position and depth of the quake.

We asked on twitter if anyone had felt the quake as we are technically close enough to feel it, however at the time of writing no one has!

Get in touch if you did!
