Lorry hit garden wall and house

A recycling lorry has rolled down a hill in Williton in Somerset, demolishing a garden wall then hitting the porch of a house.

Fire crews from Williton and a fire engine and rescue tender from Taunton attended as initial reports suggested people were trapped in the lorry.

Once they arrived at the scene in Fore Street, firefighters were able to confirm that no-one was trapped within the vehicle.

Crews then set about making the lorry safe.
