A Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: "We were called to a house fire at 5.22pm this evening on Harrington Drive in Lenton. London Road, Highfields and Stockhill were in attendance.

"Crews used four breathing apparatus, a hose reel jet and a nine meter ladder to extinguish the fire. The fire is out now so crews are just there dampening down and we will probably be on the scene for about another hour.

"We will be back at some point during the night to reinspect. No injuries have been reported. We are now handing the scene over to the police and there will be a joint fire investigation in the morning."
