Cordon put up after stonework falls two storeys and smashes in Havant high street

WORKERS have put up a safety cordon outside their charity shop after plasterwork fell and smashed in the street.Â

The makeshift measure was yesterday put in place outside PDSA in West Street, Havant, after a piece of the store's facade fell two storeys on to the pavement below.

It is not known if anybody has been injured '“ or whether more material has fallen '“ but close-up images show stonework missing from the top of the building, where rubble originally fell.  

A spokeswoman from PDSA said: '˜We are aware of an incident at our Havant Shop on Thursday morning.
