A volunteer at the scene, Bonnie, said: "Earlier this morning there was a jogger coming past. While they were coming past, the wall just fell down.

"Luckily it's only damaged just one car, and we've all just rallied around with friends, family and local people just to try and get it cleared up as quickly as we can."

Jim Last was running past the wall at about 6.30am when he heard the bricks fall onto the road.

He saidhe had not seen any vehicles crash into the structure.

Mr Last said: "I was running in the road next to it at the time. We heard the bang from the first section hitting the car and then saw the rest of it collapse.

"It definitely collapsed on its own. There were no cars around at the time — just us running past."
