Fire crews tackle blaze in Pilgrims Way, Trottiscliffe
Comments |
Three people were treated for smoke inhalation after a blaze in
a Kent village overnight.
Firefighters were called to a house in Trottiscliffe, near
Maidstone, at around 1.45am.
Crews from Borough Green and Larkfield were later joined by
colleagues from Maidstone and Thameside.
They extinguished a blaze on the ground floor shortly after
3.30am but were still dealing with a fire in the roof around three
hours later.
A spokesman for Kent Fire and Rescue Service said the building
in Pilgrims Way had suffered extensive damage but confirmed no one
was seriously hurt.
It is believed around a third of the ground floor and
three-quarters of the roof have been affected.
It is not yet known how the fire started.
