Tremors were felt in areas including Merseyside, Birmingham, Leicestershire, Bedfordshire, Northampton, Norfolk, Surrey and Greater London - including the offices of Telegraph.co.uk, near Victoria Station. The five-second tremor struck at 00.55am.
Its epicentre was 15 miles north of Lincoln, near Market Rasen, and the British Geological Survey reported the earthquake as measuring 5.3 on the Richter scale - the largest in Britain since 1984.
A spokeswoman for Lincolnshire Police said they had received dozens of phone calls about the tremor and some damage to homes had been reported.
Ian Gilmore, 63, from Rainford near St Helens on Merseyside was watching a film when he felt the tremor. His wife Patricia was also woken up and rushed downstairs to see what had happened.
Mr Gilmore said: "It was incredible - I have never felt anything like it."
A resident in Norfolk described it as "a real mover and shaker".
She said: "It was like a big juggernaut coming down the road The whole house shook - it was a real bone shaker"
Richard Sprakes of Thorne in South Yorkshire was asleep when the tremor shook his house and woke him up. "It was pretty scary I can tell you. Stuff was falling off the shelves. It was pretty rough."
Other witnesses reported to Sky News that wildlife - birds and pets- became highly agitated as the ground shook.
Telegraph readers have been writing in to tell of their earthquake experiences. Ian Lashford of Manchester described how the "building shook dramatically" and "books fell off the bookcase" in his fourth-floor flat, to the consternation of his cats, while Tom Elliot of Manchester Metropolitan University said that the quake made the buildings feel like "papier maché".
David Cannon in north Suffolk, meanwhile, said that he felt a "four-second rumble, like a train going under the house".
The earthquake was the largest since 1984, when north Wales was hit by a tremor of magnitude 5.4 on the Richter scale. The largest this century came when the West Midlands was hit by an earthquake in 2002 in the Dudley area that reached 5.0 on the Richter scale and caused damage to homes.
