The void emerged on Nant Morlais in Pant , Merthyr Tydfil , on Sunday .

It was said to be 9-12 m ( 30-40 ft) deep and five metres ( 16ft ) wide.

There were high hopes residents would be able to return to their homes soon.

But bad weather means there is now more water in the chasm and a crane is needed.
