A car careered into a house and then flipped onto its roof in a residential road.

The Peugeot 307 overturned after striking a home along the 30mph New Street in Folkestone.

The crash damaged an exterior wall of the house and a bay window, pushing bricks into the living room.

Emergency crews were called to the scene at about 12.30am this morning.

A man at the wheel of the car is reported to have walked away unscathed.

A neighbour who found a headlight of the car in a nearby garden described the road as "notorious for crashes".

The damaged house has since been boarded up.
