Seven fire engines have been called to the scene of a plane crash involving one person in Suffolk.

Fire crews from Harleston, Princes Street, Framlingham, and Lowestoft South were called at around 5.10pm to reports that a "light aircraft" had crashed at Heveningham Hall Estate, near Halesworth.

One person was said to be on board but it is currently unknown whether they sustained any injuries. 

The news comes shortly before the hall is set to host its annual country fair, expecting thousands of visitors across the July 8 to 9 weekend. 

The hall and its grounds are owned by Jon Hunt, who purchased the 5000-acre site in 1994.
