FIRE crews were called to a West Reading home to tackle a blaze.

The incident took place at 4.05pm on Sunday, December 18.

Fire fighters from Wokingham Road, Whitley Wood, and Theale fire stations were sent to the home in Salisbury Road.

There was a fire in the ground floor bathroom of the home.

It was extinguished using a hose reel, and the crews were on the scene for just over an hour and 20 minutes.
