A rugby club has cancelled its fireworks display due to flooding and "unprecedented wet weather".

Grove Rugby Football Club stated it had rearranged the display, originally scheduled to take place today, to Friday November 17.

It added that flooded playing fields had made it impossible for the event to be run safely despite the forecast for today being slightly improved.

The club said in a social media post: "We have worked extremely hard to organise this event for the local community, and hope that although the date needs to be changed you will still come and enjoy the display on Friday, November 17."

Those who purchased their tickets for the event online with the QR code will have their tickets valid now for the new date of November 17.
