Three fire appliances were scrambled to Sunnymead, in Sutton Hill, from the stations at Telford Central and Tweedale along with an operations officer at 6.27pm on Wednesday.

When the crews arrived they found it was a fire involving an electric shower on the first floor of domestic property.

It was out on arrival but had left the property filled with smoke.

Crews used a thermal camera and positive pressure ventilation kit to clear heavy smoke logging before declaring the incident over at 6.56pm.
