Pub owner David Baynham said he was cooking at the time
A pub building was damaged and a car crushed when a loaded trailer came off a tractor in Shropshire.
The building on the side of the pub, where The Queen’s Head owner’s son lives, was struck at about 14:45 BST when the trailer overturned.
The owner of the pub in Queen’s Head near Oswestry, David Baynham, 44, said the wrecked car belonged to his son, 21-year-old Daniel.
Mr Baynham added the commercial kitchen area was evacuated.
He said: "I was in the kitchen cooking - where the damage was done, I was just the other side of the wall.
"The whole building was shaking for about 20 or 30 seconds.
“I was waiting for the roof to come down.”
He said part of the building which housed ducting was demolished when the trailer overturned, but he was “OK” with insurance.
The pub is still open to customers.
Oh dear.
Now if I can try and pass on the sterotype: Bloody farmers, reading the Sun and watching DVDs at the wheel!
Good that no one was hurt.
Pub’s now been re-named: Hopp Inn

you forgot about them holding the mobile phone to their ear without a hands free kit.
Every bloody farmer I`ve seen recently driving on the road in a tractor seems to be on the mobile talking
Thats Maize in the trailer. Given the current weather and past weeks rain, Im not suprised it went over. Not sure she went at that point tho. It doesnt make sense to me.

The blue New Holland tractor was travelling along the B5009 near the Queen’s Head public house when the trailer overturned as it approached the main A5 road at about 2.45pm today.
The trailer flipped on to a black car - which was unoccupied - causing extensive damage. Nobody was hurt.
The trailer was carrying grain and also hit an outbuilding next to the pub, but the pub itself was not affected.

Well on a personal basis i have no time for farmers as they seem to have a bet going on between themselves on how many bikers they can kill by pulling out in front of them on country lanes - they have almost killed me on numerous occasions… ![:imp: :imp:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/imp.png?v=12)
I hope they lock the t.w.@.t up for failing to secure his load… w.@.n.k.e.r…
