An emergency road closure has been issued for a major road on the Norfolk and Suffolk border. 

The A146 is closed at North Cove, near Beccles, due to a large tree leaning over the carriageway. 

A spokesman for Suffolk Highways said tree surgeons will be on-site on the morning of Wednesday, October 16 to assess and remove the tree.
