They used specialist equipment including breathing apparatus, hose reel jets, a thermal imaging camera and aerial ladders to extinguish the blaze.

Local people were advised to keep their windows and doors closed due to a large amount of smoke in the air. 

Significant damage has been caused to the property but no one was home and no injuries have been reported. 

Fire services remained at the scene until nearly 11pm on Sunday and a specialist crew will be at the site today to assess the structural integrity of the building.
