Two fires broke out in houses in Reepham within half an hour of each other today.

At about 12.30pm crews from Reepham and Aylsham were called to a property in Whitwell Street.

Then at about 1pm there was another house fire at Park Lane and as the most local crews were dealing with the first call out, firefighters from Earlham and Dereham were sent out.

In both incidents, the crews wore breathing apparatus and used a thermal imaging camera.
