Traffic is returning to normal in Beaconsfield this afternoon after a tree fell on a parked car. 

The car, which was parked along the A40 Wycombe End, was left with a smashed back window. 

The road was partially blocked in both directions between Butlers Court Road and B474 Aylesbury End/Windsor End and cars were forced to drive on the pavement to get past, but the road has since re-opened. 

These pictures were sent to us by a reader who arrived on the scene just after the tree had come down. 

The tree fell on the car near the garden centre, but no one is thought to have been injured.

Police were on the scene directing traffic, but the tree and the car have now been removed and the road is open as usual.
