At approximately 1.51pm, a silver PT Cruiser was travelling south west on the A1151 when it was in collision with a silver S type Jaguar which was heading in the opposite direction.
Sadly, the rear seat passenger in the Jaguar, a woman in her 80s from Hainford, died from injuries received as a result of the collision.
The front seat passenger in the Jaguar, an elderly woman, again from Hainford, also received serious leg and chest injuries.
