HIGH-SPEED winds have battered Oxfordshire as Storm Eunice sweeps across the country.

Emergency services responded to fallen trees, overturned vehicles and blown-off roof tiles as gusts of wind reached a speed of more than 60mph.

An overturned van and lorries meant part of the M40 was closed, and villagers were 'devastated' to see a plane statue at the entrance to the Grove Business Park had been blown off its stand, crashing to the ground.

A trampoline was blown up into the sky before landing on a power cable in Bletchington and large chunks of the roof were blown off of a new £70 million hangar at RAF Brize Norton.

Oxford University students said they helped lift a fallen tree off a car alongside other locals in Cheney Lane, Oxford, to free a driver.

South Central Ambulance Service declared a critical incident as a result of the demand on its service combined with travel disruption from the impact of Storm Eunice.
