A family whose home was gutted by a major fire only learned of the devastating blaze when their unsettled four-year-old woke during the night. Husband and wife Lee and Nadine Jones and their two children, Nia and Sienna, woke up to clouds of smoke and a huge fire tearing through their home.
Four fire trucks arrived to deal with the flames and although no-one was hurt it has left their home in ruins and the family in shock. They had lived in their semi-detached houme in Litchard, Bridgend, for four years. Following the blaze on June 6 they have had to move out and are now living with Nadine’s mother in a smaller house with less space than they are used to.
The family had been using a small fire pit in their garden which they thought was out when they went back inside. Nadine said: “The fire was out, we had showers, and went back out to have a hot chocolate. The fire was still out then we'd gone to bed and 20 minutes later it was ablaze.”
