Gales and snow batter Britain as high winds fell trees and lift shed into neighbouring garden
Gales and snow caused disruption and battered parts of Britain as winds of up to 65mph swept through southern parts of England.
Police forces reported closed roads due to snow on Sunday, while others said they had been called to a number of fallen trees.
Strong winds in some of the more exposed parts of southern and western England led to damage on land and a dramatic rescue off the coast.

After a slight reprieve in conditions expected on Monday, the wild weather is expected to make a return towards the middle of the week.
The Met Office has issued two further yellow weather warnings for wind, the first of which covers much of Northern Ireland, and will begin at 3pm on Tuesday and last until midnight.
Another is in place for much of England from around midnight on Wednesday until 3pm.
During the warning periods, across Northern Ireland there could be gusts of 60mph-70mph, with 50mph-55mph seen quite widely across England and 60mph-65mph in coastal areas.
A band of heavy rain will also push south-eastwards, and will be followed by some heavy showers during Tuesday and Wednesday.
