FIREFIGHTERS tackled a blaze in a boiler room at a commercial property in Purewell on Sunday.

Dorset and Wiltshire Fire Service was called at 5.27pm.

Two crews from Christchurch attended and used four breathing apparatus, two hose reel jets and a main line to extinguish the fire.

As there was heavy smoke logging to the premises, crews also requested the attendance of a positive pressure ventilation fan, which came from Redhill Park.

Police also attended the scene to assist with traffic management.
