A woman was taken to hospital after she was hit by a falling tree in Cookham, yesterday afternoon.

Update: South Central Ambulance Service confirm 19-year-old injured after tree fall.

Her current condition is not known, but her injuries are not thought to be life threatening.

Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service were called to Sutton Road to help the woman, and crews gave first aid at the scene as they waited for ambulance crews to arrive.

Strong winds battered the south of Buckinghamshire yesterday causing traffic chaos, with a fallen tree forcing Amersham Road to be shut for about five hours, between Hazlemere and Terriers.
