It has been particularly difficult for the 30 households who have had to be evacuated from Godstone village, as there is no news on when they can return to their properties.

As things stand, there is no indication that any further evacuations will need to take place.

People in the small Surrey village who were able to stay put are remaining resilient, and they are very pleased to have their water back on.

But, what they want is to know what has happened here.

Rez Mira left his property in the early hours of Tuesday morning after being told he had to evacuate by police.

He tells BBC Radio Surrey he drove to his family in Croydon after leaving his home, a journey just under 15 miles (24 km).

Mira's garden has now collapsed into the sinkhole and he is worried that he and his family will now have to find somewhere else to live.

"School goes back next week so we need to go back," he adds.

One man who lives on the affected road says he spent Monday night sleeping in his car after the sinkhole first appeared.

"I spent the night in the car, 400 metres down the road into a carpark by the green," Josh Neame says.

Neame, who moved into his property "last Tuesday" and is yet to fully unpack his belongings, was told he could not access his house because of the sinkhole.

He was eventually allowed back into his property, very briefly, on Tuesday afternoon where he packed a bag of toiletries, pants and socks to get him through.

Despite the uncertainty for him and his neighbours, Neame remains optimistic. He believes his house's "piled" structure, meaning it was built on columns made of a strong and deep foundation to support the building, will help.

But Neame recognises that some people might not be as fortunate.

"It is awful for the people who it is literally underneath their kitchen windows," he adds.

A prize of £4,000 is available for the winner alongside a package of mentoring and support.
