Neighbours have spoken of their heartbreak after a fire wrecked a family home on their street. Emergency services were called to a house fire on Middleton Road, Newark before 4pm on April 18.
No injuries were caused by the fire which resulted in significant damage to the home. But locals at the time had expressed concern about the damage and their hope that the residents had remained safe.
Louise Heath, who neighbours the property and works at KFC Newark, said that a man had leapt through a window to flee the fire. "My friend called me and said you need to come home right now, the neighbour's house is on fire," Ms Heath said.
