Firefighters were called to a bedroom fire at a home in Clunton near Clun yesterday evening.

Sunlight reflecting on mirror causes bedroom fire in Clunton

An investigation into the cause of the fire determined it was started by sunlight reflecting onto a mirror.

The bedroom was fully involved in fire when firefighters from Clun and Craven Arms arrived at the scene just before 8pm.

The two crews used a covering jet, hosereel jet and breathing apparatus to put out the fire.
