Emergency crews were called to a village pub last night after a fire broke out in the chimney.

One fire crew from Wickhmabrook was sent to the The Star in The Street, Lidgate, at 11.34pm.

On arrival it found the chimney well alight, and used a ladder and thermal imaging camera to establish exactly where in the chimney the fire was.

Firefighters used one hose reel to extinguish the flames by 0.19am.
