A bridge is reported to have washed away during Storm Ciara.

The Miners Bridge in Betws-y-Coed, a popular tourist sight running over a tributary of the River Conwy, is said to have been destroyed as a deluge of water passes down the river.

Images from the scene showed the edge of the bridge just visible above the water, before a second image appears to show it has disappeared.

A flood warning is in place along the River Conwy, with Natural Resources Wales warning that flooding is very likely along the stretch.

Water levels are close to recent record levels.

Storm Ciara has brought torrential downpours and gale-force winds, causing widespread flooding in North Wales, as well as severe disruption to transport.
