A building caught fire in Ipswich, on Cornhill, this morning and was tackled by firefighters.

The incident was reported at around 9am after reports of fire coming out of the top of a building.

Two crews from Princes Street and the aerial platform and support pump from Ipswich East were sent to the scene.

Firefighters used one hose reel and small gear to put out the fire and used the ladder to check it had not spread to other buildings.

The fire was under control by 10.05am today.
