Lorry drives into pub
4:04pm Friday 4th July 2008
A FRAMPTON Mansell pub has been trashed after a waste lorry smashed into the front of the building this afternoon.
The lorry collided into the front of The White Horse at 1pm following a near miss with a silver Volkswagen.
A police spokesman said the lorry driver had swerved to avoid a silver car shortly before the accident.
The pub, which has been closed since April, is said to be still structurally safe.
The man driving the lorry suffered superficial cuts to his head and his right shoulder.
No-one inside the building was injured.
