Hundreds lose power as temperatures dip well below zero
More than 310 properties at a village near Shropshire were hit by a power cut on a freezing cold morning.
A fault was reported in the overhead electricity network at 6.47am and 320 properties in the Dorrington are lost supply - but power company engineers have been able to reduce that substantially this morning (Thursday).
The National Grid website said: "We are aware of this power cut incident which was raised at 6:47am this morning and our engineers are working to get the power returned as quickly as possible. We are sorry for any inconvenience this is causing you."
They anticipated power should be returned to all properties by 10am.
