Arsonists have struck a Norwich allotment tonight setting fire to sheds.

A fire engine from Earlham was called to a shed fire at the allotment on Sycamore Crescent off Dereham Road at 7.45pm.

When they arrived they found a second shed had been set alight.

Both blazes at the allotment, which is run by the city council and has eleven plots, were put out by the crew.
