Firefighters tackled a blaze at an 18th century village pub.

Four engines were called to the chimney fire at the Griffin's Head in Chillenden, near Canterbury.

Emergency crews were alerted to the blaze at the Shepherd Neame pub shortly after midday.

Flames were seen coming out of the chimney stack, which was accessed by crews using a height vehicle.

The fire was contained to the chimney and teams left the scene at around 1pm.

The timber-framed building was originally a farmhouse built in 1405 during the reign of Edward I.
