A woman and a child were taken to hospital after a cooker triggered a gas explosion on Sunday.

The force of the blast caused the windows to be blown out of the house on the A477 between St. Clears and Llanddowror at 8.55 am.

The pair were treated at the scene, near the Savoy Country Inn, but taken to hospital as a precaution.

"There was an issue with a cooker being left on," the Mid and West Wales Fire Service said.
