A power cut in Mill Hill in Deal left more than 900 customers without electricity this afternoon (Monday).

UK Power Networks confirmed that power had now been restored to its 928 customers affected by mid-afternoon.

Niamh Arnett, press spokesman for the company, said: "UK Power Networks engineers worked as quickly as possible to restore power supplies to 928 customers in the Mill Hill area of Deal after a third party damaged one of our underground electricity cables at 1.12pm today.

"Engineers restored all supplies by 2.25pm."

It is believed that building work around Mill Hill caused the damage to the cables.
