Oakham Town Council Earthquakes caused by Mr Watsons construction of basement at his Burley Road Home

Oakham Town Council Earthquakes caused by Mr Watsons construction of basement at his Burley Road Home

Rutland County Councils building inspector failed to notice Mr Watson had built a basement under his home in Burley Road whilst he was building an approved extension.

The  Town Council were astonished by Rutland County Councils failure to notice this work in progress
durring site visits.

Cllr Guthrie and other suggest this development may have caused the recent earth quakes.

Cllr Joyce Lucas then woke up and asked did it cause the earthquake?

After a lot of chat the council decided not to object to the basement.
