A family that live on the Welsh-English border have been told they won't be able to return home for Christmas after a landslide struck their house. Amy Pearce and her family live in Redbrook near Monmouthshire.
On Thursday, November 10, the family were woken up by a loud noise, which turned out to be a landslide. A spokesperson for Severn Trent confirmed that a burst water main was reported in Redbrook on the same day, which was stopped within 24 hours of being reported. They also confirmed an investigation into the slippage was currently ongoing and the cause remained unclear.
According to Amy, who has lived in the house for three years and a half with her young family, they haven't been back to their family home since the incident. The family have had to buy new clothes and are living with limited items.
