Firefighters using breathing apparatus put out a house fire in a residential road in Dereham this morning.

Crews from Dereham and Watton were called at 9.35am after neighbours saw smoke coming from the property in Hillcrest Avenue in Toftwood.

They arrived at 9.47am and used hose reel jets to put out the fire, before giving the all clear eight minutes later.

A spokesman said no-one was believed to have been injured, and there was no information about the extent of the damage.
