Not in my part of the country, though not totally unknown; but earthquakes are very common in the British Isles generally.

Most are too small for anyone to notice, or people do notice them but think them perhaps unusual vibrations from an unusually heavy vehicle or something like that. They are recorded by seismographs, though.

Most are natural but in some parts of the country some of them are tiny shocks from old mine workings collapsing.
