Ten houses in Hamworthy have had to be evacuated, after a fire in a garage containing two gas cylinders.

About 20 firefighters were called out to Caversham Close just after 9 o'clock last night - and 25 people there and on nearby Dean Close had to leave their homes for about 2 hours while crews made sure the scene was safe.

The garage was totally destroyed - and the cause of the blaze is under investigation, but isn't thought to have been deliberate.
