Yesterday, the owner of the business, Michael Whitworth, was counting the cost of the incident.

Mr Whitworth, who is self-employed, said: "It's gone into the front of a garage and demolished the front of the building. It is in a right mess. It's going to run into a lot of money. The front of the building is going to need to be demolished."
