A small earthquake shook parts of the South East this evening, with one homeowner saying her daughter felt the tremor in her bed and another saying she felt the house shake.
Gardaí in Wexford say they received four separate calls about the earthquake, from the Rosslare area, but it is not believed there was any damage or injuries.
@MacksBizGifts @SouthEastRadio Yep daughter felt the bed moving and my partner just felt it too. Also @menapiaproperti #Wexford #Earthquake

Well, was that an earthquake or a sonic boom? Heard/felt around the Wexford/Rosslare/Kilmore area.

That earthquake in Enniscorthy about 15mins ago has left me shaken but not stirred. #Wexford
