Blaze in lounge of Beck Row home

A fire started in the lounge of a Beck Row home on Saturday.

Fire crews from Mildenhall and Brandon were called to the property in Blackbird Road at about 3.05pm, where they found the lounge to be smoke-logged.

Firefighters believed the fire was connected to a chimney stack and were forced to cut into the house’s loft to gain better access to the chimney breast.

A Suffolk Fire and Rescue spokesman said the incident was under control an hour and a half later.
