Firefighters from Bodmin attended a chimney fire at Mount. Firefighters used a stirrup pump and rods to extinguish the fire, and then used a thermal image camera to confirm the fire was fully extinguished. This is all the information we have on this incident.

We are urging anyone who plans to light their fires to get it swept first. The cost of a chimney sweep is very small (from approximately £30) when compared to dealing with the damage and cost of repair from a fire.
