Firefighters were called to a village property last night, following reports a bungalow was alight.

Crews from Leiston, Saxmundham, Bungay, Stradbroke and Debenham were called to Station Road, in Laxfield, near Halesworth after a single-storey bungalow was ablaze just before 8pm.

There was a small fire in the kitchen of the building, which is believed to have sparked from the kitchen cooker.

According to the Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service, crews isolated the electrical appliances while using two sets of breathing apparatus and one hose reel to extinguish the flames.

It is believed no one was injured in the fire.
