A car became embedded in a thatched cottage after its 94-year-old driver reversed into the building.

The woman had been reversing out of her own drive when she backed into the sitting room of the house in Church Lane, Milton.

No-one was in at the time and the car has since been removed, Cambridgeshire Police said.

The woman's son said his mother was "worried" and "shocked" by the incident but unhurt.

He added: "Luckily nobody else was involved, but she's fine now and doing the house work."

Police said they were called at 09:54 GMT to reports of a collision with a house.
