It was also different for the people affected by the Channel Tunnel Rail Link. The tunnel passed underneath their house and caused a massive hole the size of a house to appear in their back gardens. Not only did this ruin their gardens and put lives at risk (luckily no one was hurt, but if someone had been in their garden at the time then they'd have been in serious trouble) but it also caused structural damage to their houses. They had no reason to expect this would happen when they bought their houses and even if they'd known about the rail link, they still couldn't have expected that sort of thing to happen. Nobody, so far, has mentioned that there were apparently old wells at the back of the house and it was they which had caused the void into which the house almost fell. True it might not have happened if the CTRL machine hadn't been boring under the gardens but it would be nice if people would give ALL the facts occasionally !!
