A fallen power cable caused 90 homes to lose power early on Monday morning

Nearly 100 homes were left without electricity because of a fallen power cable.

On Monday, Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) was alerted to a power cut affecting 90 houses in Newbury at 06:45 BST.

The company said engineers were at the site and restored power to all customers by 14:03 BST.

"SSEN would like to apologise to customers and to thank them for their patience," a spokesperson said.
