The fire on Spencer Drive, yesterday (Wednesday, June 27) started in one of the bedrooms and was put out by two fire crews from Alfreton and Ashfield.

A Derbyshire Fire and Rescue spokesman said: "The most probable cause was by a glass object refracting sunlight onto combustible materials.

"We would like to remind people not to leave mirrors, glass objects or aerosols in direct sunlight."
