Firefighters tackled a chimney blaze in a village near Worcester.

Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service was called to Broughton Hackett to deal with a chimney fire in a mid-terraced two-storey house.

A crew from Worcester Fire Station arrived at around 6.43pm on Wednesday, April 5, and doused and rodded the chimney to extinguish the flames.

A re-inspection took place at 11pm, with crews using a thermal imaging camera to ensure that hotspots had cooled sufficiently.

Nobody was injured as a result of the fire and no other emergency services were called to the scene.
