Firefighters were called to a building in Hadleigh today after a dishwasher caught fire.

Crews from Hadleigh and Princes Street in Ipswich were sent to the scene.

However a third appliance, from Princes Street, was requested when the first crew arrived at the property in George Street.

The fire was in the kitchen of a single-storey extension which was tackled by two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus.

They used one hose reel to put out the blaze by 2.42pm.

There is no indication about how much damage was caused by the fire but the building was heavily smoke-logged.
