Two
Burnham-On-Sea fire crews tackle big blaze in Bridgwater
Fire-fighters
from Burnham-On-Sea helped to tackle a big blaze in Bridgwater
on Tuesday evening, April 11th.
Two
pumps from Burnham-On-Sea were mobilised at 6.33pm to a fire in
a three storey Victorian building in Monmouth Street.
On
arrival, it was found the first floor was well alight with flames
spreading to the roof.
Fire
crews from across Somerset tackled the blaze, with three pumps
coming from Bridgwater, three from Taunton, two from Burnham,
and one from both Nether Stowey and Street.
Command
units from Bridgwater and Street were also in attendance, plus
hydraulic platforms from Taunton and Bridgwater.
A
Somerset Fire Brigade spokesman told Burnham-On-Sea.com that the
incident had been brought under control in just over two hours.
He added that at 8.45pm, most of the crews were returned to their
stations.
