Fire Brigade Say Hot Ashes Caused Eastfield House Fire

According to firefighters, they arrived at the blaze just before 1.30am on Sunday morning.

North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue say officers from Scarborough responded to a fire to a large area of decking to the rear of a domestic property.

The fire caused damage to the decking, the facias of 2 properties and a rear downstairs window.

Crews extinguished the fire, checked both loft spaces for fire spread and gave advice to residents. 

Firefighters used 2 x 45mm main jets, 4 breathing apparatus, 3 hose reel jets, small tools, lighting and a thermal imaging camera.

Officers say the cause was accidental due to hot ashes from a brazier earlier in the evening.
