Another earthquake has hit Aylesbury Vale - the second in the space of a week.

The 2.1 magnitude tremor hit overnight on the edge of Leighton Buzzard and follows last Tuesday's 3.5 which shook homes in Aylesbury.

Data shows the quake happened 10km below the surface on the edge of Leighton Buzzard late on Sunday night.

Last week's incident was described as a 'rare event' by the British Geological Survey.
