The air ambulance landed on nearby Brownedge St Mary’s High School but is understood to have returned to Furness General Hospital in Barrow, Cumbria without any patients onboard.

Lancashire Police said no one was seriously hurt, but a number of casualties suffered minor injuries. North West Ambulance Service said a woman and three children were taken to hospital by road for treatment.

The road, which has a 20mph speed limit, was taped off near the junction with Withy Gardens, off Station Road, while police, paramedics and fire crews worked at the scene.

Both of the vehicles sustained significant damage and the road remained closed for some time while the scene was cleared.

The force said no one was arrested and an investigation is ongoing.
