Came home today to find my street blocked up. A fire in a house in New Road, Lots of investigation vans parked up. Midway by the football ground entrance.

My partner and i looked at the upstairs flat which was for rent 6-8 months ago but decided on another flat. the owners live in america. How scary, hope everyone is ok.

Never nice to see or smell, and an awful experience to happen to anyone.I do hope that the family are all OK and safely housed somewhere.

The wall plaque says "Acacia Cottages 1850".

Thanks Anthony and Jennifer for the sad news. What a shock for the family and neighbours.I understand from neighbours that a Gran and grandchild were in the house at the time and the mother was out at work...but neither knew where! Added anxiety.Apparently there were minor explosions and you can see from this photo that the flames must have been frightening.
Hope everyone was OK - it looks horrible from the outside.
