Five appliances and crews, and two officers were in attendance at the height of the fire.

The appliances and crews attending were from:

Smoke and flames were issuing from the roof of a house when they arrived.

The fire was located in a storage area on the second floor of a three storey-house and was spreading to affect an adjoining property.

The incident generated multiple calls to Thames Valley Fire Control Service.

The firefighters used:

  • Four sets of breathing apparatus
  • Two hose reel jets
  • One main jet
  • A turntable ladder
  • A positive pressure ventilation fan
  • A thermal imaging camera

They isolated the electricity supply to the house.
