More than 500 homes in north Norfolk lost electricity due to a power cut.

The affected properties were in the NR28 0 postcode area which covers half of North Walsham, Felmingham, Swafield, Knapton and Trunch.

UK Power Networks became aware of the issue just after midday.

It was caused by a fault with a high voltage overhead electricity wire.

Engineers were called out to repair the issue and power was restored just after 2.30pm.

It followed a string of other cuts across the county as Storm Conall heads east towards the Netherlands.
