News sources have reported that a refuse truck had stuck the scaffolding this morning bringing the structure crashing down onto a busy Henley street.

A Biffa tipper truck hit the scaffolding outside a shop in Bell Street in the town early this morning (Thursday), knocking it into the historic pub opposite.

Nobody was injured in the collapse but the landlord in the pub opposite was trapped as the scaffold fell against the building.

Police closed the street to traffic at 6.20am and called out a structural engineer.
