Oven fire in Sutton Bridge

Long Sutton firefighters attended an oven fire in Sutton Bridge yesterday evening (Tuesday).

The fire, at Chapel Court, had been extinguished on arrival, and the crew ventilated the property.

The blaze had been caused by a build up of fat in the oven.

A fire service spokesman said: “While it’s not an exciting job, keeping your oven clean will reduce the risk of an oven fire.”
