The ground floor of a mid-terrace property in Snowdon Court, Haverhill, caught fire at about 3am.

Two crews from the town tackled the blaze and a spokesman from Suffolk Fire Service revealed that a 25-year-old woman was treated at the scene by paramedics.

An investigation will be launched to determine the cause of the fire which was put out within half an hour.
