Firefighters are tackling a blaze in flats behind a Swindon pharmacy.

Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service were called to the incident in Birch Street at around 1pm this afternoon (Thursday).

Two fire crews were in attendance, with two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus entering flats behind Park Lane Pharmacy with a hose reel jet and a ladder.

A small kitchen fire was extinguished – which resulted from a pan being left on the hob.

Nobody is believed to have been injured, and ambulances were tasked.

There are minor delays along Westcott Place, where one fire engine is partially obstructing the road.

The fire was out by 2.20pm and emergency services are likely to be clear of the scene by 3pm.
