Fire crews were called to tackle a blaze at a home in Newhaven this morning (Tuesday, 2 September).
A spokeswoman for East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service confirmed:
“We were called at 10.55am to reports of a fire at a domestic property in Lewes Road, Newhaven. We currently have three fire engines in attendance. Crews are currently using four breathing apparatus, two hose reel jets and a Positive Pressure Ventilation (PPV) fan to tackle the fire.”
The C7 Lewes Road was closed while crews dealt with the blaze, but it has since reopened after the fire service scaled down the incident.
Emergency services remain at the scene, and firefighters are continuing to monitor the situation.
The cause of the fire has not yet been confirmed.
