One of the vehicles involved can be seen buried in the hedgerow outside the library with serious damage to its side, while another is on its roof with all the windows smashed and the rear bumper detached.

Police were called to the scene shortly after 3pm where debris has been left scattered across the carriageway and a clean up operation is underway.

Witnesses at the scene say they saw a lady outside the church being tended to by paramedics.

“We could hear the crash from our house,” they said.

“When we went to have a look we saw someone in their mid-50s to 60s being tended to but she was sat up and awake. They have probably taken them to hospital.”
