[gallery] A car was torched in the early hours of the morning and police are appealing for witnesses.
A fire crew from Wellington were called to the blaze at Rural Cottages in Eaton Constantine, near Cressage, at about 12.15am.
A spokesman for Shropshire Fire and Rescue service said: "There was one car set alight. We had a crew in attendance at about 12.30am and they used one hose reel and two breathing apparatus to put the fire out."

The fire is being treated as suspicious.
