A man was hospitalised after the car he was driving rolled over on a village road on Monday.

The emergency services were scrambled to the crossroads between Aston and Bennington shortly before 3pm after reports of a car on its roof.

East of England Ambulance service spokesman Gary Sanderson said the man, in his 30s from Stevenage, was out of the white Rover 214 when crews arrived.

“Paramedics and a doctor from the air ambulance assessed him at the roadside before he was taken to the Lister Hospital in Stevenage with slight injuries,” he said.
