Two appliances from Sleaford and another from Billingborough were scrambled to put out the fire in a home on Cobham Close just after 9.15pm.

An electrical fault within a fridge freezer is thought to be to blame for the start of the fire which damaged a small area of the bridge/freezer door, according to Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue.

There was moderate smoke damage to the rest of the kitchen.
