Just saw this on the above
 
From the source quoted by Tomferry:

"A police officer at the scene told locals that foam concrete had been sprayed into the foundations, and fixed the structure.

He said: "Those houses won't move again. These guys are experts, they work all over the world."!



Hmm. Mine subsidence is not usually fixed that quickly and easily. (Unless initial reports were exaggerated.)

Seems to be a regular occurrence:
