The roof of a village hall has blown off from the strength of Storm Eunice as the fierce storm swept through the county.

Part of the roof at Hughenden village hall flew off at around midday into the car park towards the village store and coffee shop.

The collapsed roof caused damage to the outside seating area by the shop and park area.
