Crews from six stations tackle second blaze in abandoned building

Fire crews from six stations tackled a blaze in an empty house in Burton near Christchurch last night.

Large plumes of smoke could be seen from the abandoned building in Salisbury Road.

Buses were diverted while crews from Christchurch, Springbourne, Redhill, Westbourne, Poole and New Milton used hose jets to deal with the fire.

It’s believed the same building was set alight on May 23.

The cause of the fire is unknown.
