Monday morning kitchen blaze in Banbury
28/09/2021
Working smoke alarms and shutting doors significantly reduced damage
Two engines from Banbury fire station were sent to deal with a kitchen fire in Banbury yesterday morning (Monday September 27). The call was made to the emergency services from a property in Ashmead Road on Hanwell Fields.
Smoke alarms gave an early warning to the home owners as the blaze told hold at the property.
A crew entered the house wearing breathing apparatus to extinguish the fire.
The fire service say that the smoke alarms, together with the home owners’ quick thinking by shutting the door as they escaped, significantly reduced damage to the rest of the house.
A spokesperson said “We strongly advise that you ensure you have smoke alarms in your property.”
