Three crews went to the property along with an operations officer and brought the fire under control.

A spokesperson for Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service said the fire involved the roof of single storey domestic property due to fire in the flue of a log burner.

A thermal imaging camera was used to ensure that there were no hot spots that could re-ignite.
