•The lorry stuck in Rosemary Lane, Stroat.

A NARROW lane was blocked after a lorry got stuck when the driver followed advice from a sat-nav device.

A sign has been put at the junction of Rosemary Lane and the A48 in Stroat warning drivers of large vehicles not to use the single track road.

The articulated lorry from the Midlands got stuck last Thursday (April 9) and was eventually removed the following day.

A resident, who did not wish to be named, said: “The lorry caused considerable damage to verges, walls, trees and dislodged rocks which in turn caused serious damage to the underside of a van.

“The lorry was travelling up Rosemary Lane despite the road sign saying unsuitable for HGVs.

“The incident was witnessed by several residents – the driver was heard to say it was not his fault it was his sat-nav.”
