Firefighters and police are carrying out a joint investigation after a house was badly damaged by fire last night.
The blaze in the two-storey house, in Beaconsfield Road, Tovil, Maidstone, started just after 9pm.
Four fire crews and an aerial appliance were called and jets, a hydrant and breathing apparatus were used to bring it under control.
No one was in the property at the time, but three people living in a neighbouring house had to stay with friends and family overnight.
Police and fire officers are at the scene today carrying out an investigation to determine the cause of the blaze.
