'Devastating' blaze at Clandon Park stately home

Fire-fighters are tackling a large fire at a stately home in Surrey.

The National Trust looks after the property, Clandon Park House, which was built in the 1720s and has a large collection of 18th century porcelain and furniture.

Speaking to the BBC from the site, Geri Silverstone from the National Trust said a rescue effort was underway to recover as much as possible from the house.
