Businesses left without water after burst main

Businesses and customers were left without water at Lynn’s Hardwick Industrial Estate after damage led to a burst main.

A “third party” reportedly caused the problems on Tuesday, with businesses throughout the area left without any mains water.

Anglian Water is responsible for the infrastructure in the area, but a spokesperson told the Lynn News that the damage was caused by someone else.
