FIREFIGHTERS from three counties were called to tackle a shed fire that spread to a neighbouring home.

Crews from Ascot, Hampshire and Surrey were called to Upper Broadmoor Road at 3pm.

Firefighter Neil Hopkins said both addresses were empty when the crews arrived.

"The shed was well alight," he said. "The fire had spread, cracking the windows of the next property.

"It mostly suffered smoke damage, there was a little fire damage too but most of it was smoke."

The firefighters remained on the scene for around an hour and a half as they put out the blaze.
