People in part of Norwich woke up on Saturday (August 15) morning to discover they were without electricity, after homes were hit by a power cut.

UK Power Networks said the power cut had affected people living in the NR2 area of Norwich, which includes parts of Earlham Road, Dereham Road, Unthank Road and numerous streets in between.

The problem was blamed on a fault with a piece of electrical equipment.

It had been fixed and power restored by 9.30am.
