Fire-fighters responded to the call for help and within 15 minutes had brought the blaze under control; but not before all the contents of the house were consumed.

It is believed that the fire started in the kitchen area of the house.

The occupant, Pauline Gibson had just returned from morning shopping in town and was starting to prepare lunch for her family when the fire started.
