FIREFIGHTERS were called to a house fire in Great Sankey yesterday, Sunday.
Eight crews from Lymm, Penketh, Warrington, Widnes, Stockton Heath, Chester, Tarporley and Ellesmere Port attended Cronulla Drive at around 10.30pm.
They used two breathing apparatus inside the property and four further breathing apparatus tackling the fire to the rear.
The team also tackled the fire from the neighbouring property.
Three hose reels and a main jet were used to extinguish the fire, with a thermal imaging camera used to check for hotspots.
A dog from Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service was in attendance to help with the investigation into the cause of the fire.
