At 4pm, National Grid reported that 81 properties in Cleobury Mortimer had been affected by a 'high voltage' incident.

The power company states that these incidents tend to be larger and affect a wider area, and could be why several neighbours are also without electricity supply. 

The power cut was first reported to National Grid at 1.40pm.

It estimates the problem will be resolved by 7pm.
