The man who died has not yet been named, but is believed to have been from the Wells area.

One hand-written tribute taped to a bunch of flowers laid at the roadside says: 'We'll always remember you with the never-ending smile. Sleep tight Browneyes.'

Another note adds: 'Always the life of the party. You will be missed.'

Police are still investigating the cause of the crash, which involved three cars.

It happened on a rural stretch of the B1355, between North Creake and Burnham Market, on Friday night.

Emergency services were called to the scene, on a bend near the village of Burnham Thorpe, at around 7.30pm. Firefighters from Fakenham and Wells used hydraulic lifting gear to free a casualty from one of the vehicles, before making the scene safe.

An ambulance, a rapid response vehicle, a volunteer officer from the Norfolk Accident Rescue Service (NARS) and an ambulance officer also attended the incident.

Two people were taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, in King's Lynn, suffering from leg and hip injuries. One was treated at the scene.

Police closed the road in both directions for more than five hours as inquiries into the collision began.

Officers from Norfolk's serious collision investigation team are appealing for witnesses to contact them.
