A man, believed to be a scaffolder, has fallen from a building on an industrial estate.

The ambulance service was called to the Oak Fields industrial estate in Eynsham at about midday and an air ambulance was sent to the scene.

Nick Webster, from WS supplies which is opposite the former OGM building in Southfield Road, said he believed workers were repairing the roof.

Thames Valley and Chiltern Air Ambulance spokeswoman Sarah Williamsons said: “We were called at 12.16pm to an industrial accident, a fall from some height.”

She added they took a patient to Oxford's John Radcliffe hospital with a leg injury.
