More than 20 firefighters respond to reports of blaze in attic of Mansfield home

Crews were called to a blaze in the loft space of a three-storey home on High Oakham Road.

Crews from Mansfield, Ashfield, Edwinstowe and London Road attended, alongside an aerial ladder platform and support appliance.

Crews used a nine-metre ladder, safe working at height equipment, and two hose-reel jets to tackle the blaze, following the call on Sunday, May 7, just after 9am.

A Nottinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service spokesman said: “A fire had started accidentally in the loft space.

“No-one was evacuated from the property and there were no injuries.”
