Hundreds of people have been hit by a Christmas Day power outage.

More than 70 addresses across Sutton Valence, Langley, Chart Sutton, Kingswood, and East Sutton Hill are without electricity.

UK Power Networks says it became aware of the problem at 7.19am.

Engineers are now on site, carrying out investigations and repairs.

The company estimates power will be back on between 2pm and 3pm.

It is believed the problem is due to an overhead electricity equipment fault.

An update on the company's website read: "We're sorry for any disruption this may be causing you.

"We're investigating an overhead electricity equipment fault which has caused a power cut in the local area."
