A main road in Hockwold, near Thetford, was blocked after a tree fell and smashed into a wall during Storm Eunice.

With extremely high winds battering the region today, a tree fell down in Main Street, between Nursery Lane and Church Lane, at around 1pm today (Friday, February 18).

Gary Bland, 60, who lives nearby, saw the tree had fallen down as he drove back from the post office and he reported it to Norfolk Police.

Mr Bland said: "I was shocked and someone could have been hurt, especially if the kids weren't on school holidays as it was at lunchtime.

"It could have been really nasty but fortunately it was just the wall damaged.

"It is a shocking thing to see, particularly on a main road."

Mr Bland has also seen a lot of items, such as bins, strewn across the road in Hockwold due to the winds.
