Google Maps blunder turns tiny village into shortcut route

Villagers have been 'bombarded' with lorries after a Google Maps blunder turned their slice of countryside into a 'shortcut'. Historic bridges, walls, Grade II homes and even cars in Lulligton have been damaged ever since lorries started driving through to reach nearby Frome. The chaos started in July, according to locals, after Google Maps began suggesting their tiny Somerset village as a preferred route to the town instead of the main road.
