It may be the shock mount that's gone.

It went on a Chimera with us on a run we were on recently.

Exact same symptoms as yours.

Shocks may have snapped. Mine did this a few years ago.

Full marks to kojak just had a peer through the alloys with a torch and can see the shock absorber has snapped at the top a bit surprised at this as they are only 18 months old wont post the brand of shock until i investigate further

You should make a claim against the local council. If that pot hole had been previously reported they have 48 hours to fix it. After that they are liable for any damages caused to vehicles.

Good idea to try the claim, may be worth taking photos too, in case it gets filled in?
