A Fire Service spokesman said: "We were called to reports of a car that had crashed into a wall.

"There was a woman inside the car, who was not trapped but who was not moved over concerns about potential back and neck injuries.

"Two passengers got out before we arrived.

"Fire crews worked to ensure that the casualty was ok and worked with paramedics to remove her from the vehicle."

The woman was taken to Royal Preston Hospital.

Firefighters spent around 50 minutes at the scene.
