Firefighters spent more than six hours at the scene of a huge blaze which ripped through a Northumberland home.
Northumberland Fire and Rescue Service were called to Marlow Street in Blyth at around 8.30pm on Friday with crews working tirelessly through the night to bring the blaze under control.
Six appliances were initially dispatched to the scene and they were joined by the aerial ladder platform.
Marlow Street and a section of the A193 were cordoned off as crews fought the flames coming from the terraced home.
Firefighters tackled the blaze for hours from above the burning building and at ground level with the property's roof collapsing as a result of the incident.
There were no occupants in the house at the time of the fire with no injuries reported.
Firefighters managed to extinguish the blaze and left the scene at around 2.45am.
