A spokesperson for National Grid said: “We know you're without power. We were alerted at 5:32am this morning and our engineers are working to get your electricity back on as quickly as possible. We're sorry for the disruption.
“We give you our best estimate for when your power will be back on, based on what we know at the time. Times might change if we face unexpected challenges getting to the fault. These times show when the last person in the area will have power back - most of you will be reconnected before this.”
