💨 Abstract

A sinkhole in Godstone, Surrey, uncovered abandoned Victorian mining tunnels, unnerving locals. Due to ongoing investigations, the area remains disrupted, with businesses suffering significant losses. Locals are concerned about vulnerable individuals and the long-term impact on the community. The road is expected to reopen by December, with authorities ensuring safety and repair of underground services. The sinkhole is linked to potential weather related changes that could indicate future collapse risks to aging infrastructure.
