Work to make a building in Hastings safe after a number of bricks fell onto the pavement below is continuing.

Havelock Road was closed to traffic and pedestrians were advised to avoid the area at about 1pm on Tuesday (August 2) after the brickwork fell from the side of Queensbury House.

There were no reports of any injuries.

The road has remained closed since then, but Hastings Borough Council hopes it will reopen on Friday.
