Hi Craig,
I am assuming that the pot hole that you hit was on the right-hand side wheel?
Could be a few things:
- bent suspension arm or track rod end
- buckled wheel
P.s. You may be able to charge the repair to the local council. Check here: http://www.potholes.co.uk/claims/how_to_claim

check tyre pressures then have a look at lower arm,worth seeing if the wheel has moved back slightly in the arch, only needs a couple of mill to make a difference
