(10 minutes later) | |
More than 20 firefighters are tackling a blaze at three terraced houses in Loughor, near Swansea. | |
Four crews were called to the scene at Heol Maes y Cerreg at 1221 BST where they said the houses were well alight. | |
The Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service said it was thought the fire started in one house before spreading to adjoining properties. | |
It is not believed at this stage that anyone is inside any of the buildings affected. | It is not believed at this stage that anyone is inside any of the buildings affected. |
Witness John Ferris, who lives on the street, said the area surrounding the properties had been cordoned off. | |
"Flames were absolutely pouring out through windows and through the tiles," he said. | |
He said there was still a little smoke coming out of the house where the fire originally started as firefighters dampened down the site. | |
"The house itself is all blackened - it must be close to being a write-off." | |
