A teenager is set to appear in court after an arson attack that caused £9,000 worth of damage to public toilets.
The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with two counts of arson.
It follows £9,000 worth of damage being caused to the Barwells Court public toilets in Dereham.

The toilets off Market Place in the town centre were then closed while repairs to them were carried out.
At the time of the attack, Norfolk police said they would be increasing patrols in the area.
A spokesman for the police said at the time: "This is an area we regularly patrol anyway, particularly since there were similar incidents in the summer, but we will aim to be there even more now."
The teenager is due to appear at King's Lynn Youth Court on March 28.
