Scaffolding around a row of terraced houses due for demolition in north Staffordshire has collapsed.

The scene of the collapse

The scaffolding was in place in Wellington Road in the Hanley area of Stoke-on-Trent.

A spokesman for West Midlands Ambulance Service said they were called to the street at 1030 BST.

He added: “Although there were workmen there, no-one was hurt; a very lucky escape indeed given the size of the structure that had fallen.”

Fire crews also attended the scene.
