Photos: Sutton pothole receives 'meme' treatment from residents

The giant hole outside the New Cross pub on Mansfield Road, Sutton, went viral as creative residents photoshopped all manner of different people and creatures inside – including Nessie and Titanic characters Jack and Rose.

Nottinghamshire Council, the county highways authority, said the problem had been caused by a burst water main.

The pothole has since been cordoned off as part of repair works by Severn Trent.
