A property in Alverstone Garden Village has been gutted by fire.

Crews were called to Woodside Avenue just before 4.30pm yesterday (Saturday).

Initial reports were that a shed was well alight, but the blaze quickly spread to the main building.

Despite the best efforts of firefighters, tackling the fire from the ground and above, much of the roof space of the property has been destroyed.

Fortunately, no serious injuries have been reported.
