Shed And Contents Destroyed In Overnight Fire At Weston

BY IAN CROUCH

Fire has destroyed a shed and its contents at Weston overnight.

Fire crews from Kurri Kurri, Cessnock, Abermain and Weston were called to Fourth Street just after 9 o'clock to find the shed at the rear of a home well alight.

A car and a boat stored inside the shed were also destroyed.

It's taken more than two hours to extinguish and mop up the blaze.

No-one was injured and the home itself wasn't damaged.

The cause of the fire is not known at this stage, but it's not thought to be suspicious.
