Property fire

Fire control received a call from a member of the public who had woken up to a house filled with smoke in Coxley.

A Fire engine from Wells attended the incident and requested support from an officer.

On arrival crews were able to confirm there was a small fire involving a beam of the chimney as a result of a wood burner used the evening prior.

Crews got to work with Chimney gear, small tools, water to cool the area and a thermal imaging camera was used to check all floors and the adjoining property for hot spots.
