But, despite the efforts of emergency services, including fire crews from Long Stratton, Harleston and Diss, the three males aged in their late teens were confirmed dead at the scene.

Katie Dade, 19, of Tattlepot Road, Pulham Market, said: 'It is just such a shock. We didn't expect it. It's such a small village, you never expect anything like this to happen.'

She added that the mood of the village was 'very much sadness and grief'.

A memorial and book of condolences has been set up in St John the Baptist Church in Harleston, around five miles from Pulham Market.

One message said: 'Three young boys taken away too quickly. My family's thoughts are with you.'

A candle has been lit in memory of the teenagers and a prayer dedicated to them.

Floral tributes were left at the roadblock at the village end of the road.

One of them read: 'In our thoughts forever and always. Never forgotten.'
