Neighbours were 'frightened' by smoke and flames as a fire took hold in a Nottingham house. Fire crews were deployed to Pennard Walk in Clifton after a house fire broke out on the afternoon of Thursday, May 18.
The back of the home was badly damaged by the flames, which according to a neighbour nearly spread to a nearby garden. One woman was rescued from the property and treated for smoke inhalation, with the fire service stating everyone had been accounted for.
Locals were relieved that it seemed no one had been seriously hurt, but some were scared by the dramatic scene as the emergency services acted to enclose the area and put out the fire. John Perry, 66, and Kim Perry, 61, of Farnborough Road, said they spotted smoke before flames burst out of the house.
