At 3:38pm on Monday, 23 February, we received reports of a fire on Bedford Road in Reading.
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service crews from Theale, Newbury and Wokingham Road fire stations were sent to the scene.
Upon arrival, crews found a small fire on the ground floor of the property. Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used one hose reel to put out the fire, before using a ventilation fan to clear the smoke from the property and make the scene safe.
They were on scene for approximately 34 minutes.
