A fire that broke out in a home near Beaumont has been extinguished.

14 firefighters worked to tackle the blaze, which started in the roof space of the St Peter property.

The two residents escaped without injury and Old Beaumont Hill has since re-opened.

The fire caused extensive damage to the upper floor of the building, and is thought to have started in the property's electrics.
