Seascale sinkhole swallows up car park

A sinkhole has swallowed up the ground around a seafront car park.

The void appeared over the weekend along the shorefront in Seascale, Cumbria.

Parish councillor Zöe O’Hanlon said she believed it had been caused by a burst outflow pipe, and councillors had been at the scene with United Utilities, police and highways officers.

In an update posted on social media, she said: “We have been advised that United Utilities will be clearing up the area and fencing off in the vicinity where the sinkhole is.” United Utilities has been approached for comment.
