Part of the A11 was blocked after a car fire on bank holiday Monday near Snetterton.

Appliances from East Harling and Attleborough attended and crews wore breathing apparatus and used hose reel jets to extinguish the fire and it was out by just after 12.50pm.

Norfolk Police told drivers to avoid the area.
