Tractor dumps manure over road

A TRACTOR overturned and shed its load - dumping loads of manure over the road.

The vehicle was travelling along Elm High Road when the incident happened at 8.20am, blocking the road between the B1101 Main Road and Church Road junctions.

Police arrived to redirect traffic but the mess took several hours to clean up, as the manure spread across the pavement and around the Blacksmith Arms pub.

No one was injured during the incident.
