Further cracks appear in street as hole that opened up in village in Merthyr Tydfil continues to expand
People who have been evacuated from homes perched precariously close to a large – and growing – sinkhole in south Wales that appeared in the wake of Storm Bert fear they may not get back by Christmas.
The sinkhole opened up in a cul-de-sac in the village of Pant, Merthyr Tydfil after the collapse of a culvert, a structure that allows water to flow under roads and railways, and led to residents from 29 homes being told to flee.
