Firefighters tackled a fire at a commercial property in Whitchurch.
It is believed the property caught fire due to an electrical fault which set fire to a linen cupboard on the ground floor of a kitchen area.
Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service sent three appliances, including the incident support unit, from Market Drayton, Prees, Tweedale and Whitchurch.
Operations and fire investigation officers were also in attendance at the address in Calverhall, after a property fire was reported just after 11.15pm on Tuesday.
Crews used four sets of breathing apparatus, two hose reel jets and one covering jet to put out the fire.
