    Police have this morning closed the viaduct over Nidd Gorge in Bilton while they deal with an incident.

    There was a heavy police presence around 9am but officers did not say how long they had been on the scene.

    The viaduct is closed in both directions and numerous vehicles are stationed at the southern side towards Bilton Lane, behind a police cordon.

    North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service is reported to be on the scene as well.

    It is not known how long the area is likely to be closed.

    The gorge is popular with dog walkers, cyclists and runners.

    The Stray Ferret has requested information from North Yorkshire Police but had not received a response at the time of publication.

    We will update this story when further details are available.
