40 firefighters tackle fire on Broadlands Estate. Picture by Kirsty Barton
FIRE investigators were this morning sifting through the remains of the motorhome and large workshop that went up in flames near the Broadlands Estate in Romsey last night.
A total of 40 firefights were called to battle the blaze which started on the estate at around 11pm last night.
Police put temporary road diversions in place after fears that aerosol canisters stored in the garage may explode, although none did.
No-one was injured in the fire which firefighters said destroyed the timber clad workshop containing lawnmowers and other machinery.
Fire crews from Romsey, Eastleigh, Redbridge and St Mary's stations in Southampton attended the scene in Lee Lane.
