A man has been injured at the scene of a large outbuilding fire, Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service said.

The man went to hospital with what they believe was a burn injury to the hand, the service added.

Crews were called at 13:24 BST to Montford Bridge, near Shrewsbury, to a fire which is believed to have been started by electrics.

"Thankfully it turned out to be a small part of the area and not the entire 1000m squared building," a spokesman said. Crews from Shrewsbury, Telford Central and Minsterley were at the scene.
