A BLAZE that broke out in a Malvern industrial estate was fought for several hours by fire crews.

The fire service was called out to a warehouse in Spring Lane at around 7.30am on Monday (November 11).

A spokesperson for Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service said: "Four crews - two each from Worcester and Malvern Fire Station - plus the aerial ladder platform from Worcester and the incident command unit from Ledbury were called out to a building fire.

"The fire was in a factory, around 50m by 80m, in the roof space above an oven and was fought by two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus."

After putting out the flames, two of the fire engines returned to the station while one firefighter took to the skies with a thermal imaging camera to monitor the roof and ensure the factory was safe.

The spokesperson added: "There were no casualties and no other emergency services were required."

It is not known how badly the factory was damaged.
