Lewes High Street remains closed today after ‘part of the roof of the White Hart Hotel collapsed’.

Police were forced to close the road yesterday (Wednesday, October 2), following the incident, which sparked a large emergency response and caused chaos in the area with residents having to make alternative travel arrangements.

The road remained closed overnight, with a diversion route in place.
