2 appliances from St Dennis attended following concerns that the fire had spread to a roof void. Crews used a thermal imaging camera to confirm that the fire was out and had not spread.

General Advice:
Chimney Fires
Have your chimney swept at least once per year.
Chimney fires can spread to the rest of the house with devastating effects causing injury or death.
