A SINKHOLE roughly three to four metres deep has emerged in a residential road.
Fire crews were called to Colebrooke Road in Bexhill earlier this morning and have taped off the area.
A water pipe is reportedly leaking due to the collapse of the road, with the hole said to be up to four metres deep.
A team from Southeast Water was also spotted at the scene.
A spokeswoman for East Sussex Fire and Rescue said: "We attended the scene after a call at 11.42am.
"One fire engine was sent. The crew cordoned off the scene.
"Highways were alerted and we left at 12.20pm after handing the incident over to them."
More as we have it.
