Power has been restored to the final 492 customers after a fire in an electricity pole this morning.

UK Power Newtworks engineers turned off supplies to 1,347 customers at 11.08 am and a firecrew from Mundesley attended the scene, at Ostend Gap, near Walcott, on the north Norfolk coast.

Repairs continued through the day and at 3pm 492 customers were still without power. Their service was restored at 5.18pm.

A UK Power Networks spokesman apologised for the inconvenience caused.
