A fire that broke out in a home near Beaumont has been extinguished.

14 firefighters worked to tackle the blaze, which started in the roof space of the St Peter property.

Crews were called at 8:24am and remained on the scene for four and a half hours.

The two residents escaped without injury and Old Beaumont Hill has since re-opened.

The fire caused extensive damage to the upper floor of the building, and is thought to have started in the property's electrics.
