It is believed that the man who died had been living in the caravan.

West Mercia police confirmed that officers were called to Babbinswood Farm at about 8.40am on Christmas Eve after the blaze broke out and it was feared that the occupant was trapped inside.

A police spokeman said: "A man was found to have died. The death is not being treated as suspicious at this time, and a file is being prepared for the coroner."

The police said the man's next of kin had been informed.

Babbinswood Farm is the home of the Oakwood Veterinary Centre.

Barbara Jones from the centre said that it was an awful and very sad time.
