Details
Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used hose reel jets to tackle a fire in a chimney from the loft space of a three storey property. Crews outside used the aerial ladder platform to spray water from above. Firefighters removed roof tiles to access hot spots in the roof which had been identified using the thermal imaging camera.
At 19:30 the incident was reduced to three fire engines and the aerial ladder platform. Crews are continuing to dampen down the roof.
