It was in Hunslet, or rather 6.2 miles below Hunslet which might be the nice bit:

(not sure how accurate the USGS stuff is, but I'm guessing fairly accurate)

Or undecided - this map puts it North of Leeds

I felt the floor shake in Harrogate, but it only felt as if something heavy had dropped on the floor. For reference the floor in my flat shakes when the washing machine is on spin cycle...

Felt it here in Teesside.

Here is a map of reports of people experiencing it.

It will take a day or so to pinpoint the actual epicentre when various monitoring posts can collate their data. You need at least 3 points far enough away to pinpoint the epicentre.

The empty vacuum in the Leeds United trophy room caused the earth's crust to split.

Well bu993r me, I thought I felt something but put it down to traffic... I'm up in Teesside, about 40 miles from Ripon.

I make that 3 'quakes in what, under 2 years? Is Great Britain about to slip her moorings and float off somewhere warm? I do hope so.
