POLICE are appealing for information after a man was attacked in the toilets of the Town Mills public house in Andover in the early hours of Christmas Day.

As a result of the incident the man needed treatment for cuts and bruises and was taken to Winchester hospital.

PC Ashley Whitlock from Andover police said: "Were you in the vicinity on Christmas Eve or in the early hours of Christmas Day?
