Firefighters are urging people to double check hobs and ovens are turned off after cooking following a fire in beach huts in Birchington in the early hours.

Five beach huts on The Parade were destroyed by the blaze, while a sixth had smoke and heat damage.

Kent Fire and Rescue Service believe the fire started accidentally as a result of a cooker being left on inside one of the huts.

Spokeswoman Leanne McMahon advised: "Whether cooking at home in the kitchen, having a barbecue in the garden, using a portable stove while camping or cooking in a beach hut - it's so important to check, and check again, that you've turned cooking appliances off once you're finished."

An outline application for up to 375 homes in Haywards Heath has been approved by Mid Sussex District Council.

The application for the site at Hurst Farm, Hurstwood Lane, was submitted by the council and Cross Stone Securities.

Traffic and access issues led to intense debate at the planning meeting on Thursday, having made up the bulk of the concerns raised in more than 140 letters of objection.

All other matters - such as housing design and layout, plans for primary school, burial ground, allotments, country park, green way and car parking - will be considered at a later date.

Resident Roger Brocklehurst described much of the data in the planning report as “woefully deficient, incorporating deeply-flawed and inappropriate models”.

He added: "For a project potentially having such an overwhelming effect on the town, that is quite simply not acceptable."

His concerns centred around the safety of people having to cross the A272, particularly schoolchildren, and the decision not to include traffic lights at the junction of Fox Hill and Hurstwood Lane.

In its submission to the committee, Haywards Heath Town Council agreed: "This is critical, because Hurstwood Lane as a commuter rat-run will be blocked, therefore increasing traffic movements down through Fox Hill.”

Ian Gledhill, of West Sussex County Council's highways department, insisted the models used to determine traffic flow were “robust”.

He said he did not think there was a need for traffic lights, and the impact of traffic was “considered acceptable".

In the planning report, West Sussex County Council, in its role as highways authority, said: "The county council accepts the development will result in additional traffic... It’s considered that the development would not result in a severe capacity impact."

The application was approved to calls of “unbelievable” and “incredible” from objectors.

Sussex Police has withdrawn calls to shut down a popular Hastings nightspot after its owners agreed to introduce tough new licensing conditions.

Earlier this year, police applied for the licence of French's Wine Bar in Robertson Street to be revoked due to concerns around drunkenness and drugs use at the premises.

Hastings Borough Council's licensing sub-committee had been expected to make a decision on the application at a hearing on last Wednesday, but the meeting was adjourned a few minutes into proceedings to allow legal discussions to continue.

Following a long adjournment the hearing was called off, with both police and the licence holder agreeing to work out details of new, tougher licensing conditions for the bar.

Pub-goers in Thanet are being reminded to "Ask for Angela" if they feel in danger, after a number of reports of drinks being spiked, particularly at venues in the Ramsgate area.

The national initiative encourages people to "Ask for Angela" at the bar if they are worried for their safety. Bar staff will provide discreet assistance in response.

PC Justin Carter of Kent Police said: "While drink-spiking incidents are still very rare, we take every report seriously and are keen to ensure people know what to do if they or a friend have been targeted.

"The majority of clubs and pubs in Thanet are safe places to visit but risks do exist and it is important people are aware of the support available if they are unfortunate enough to have their drink spiked."

South Western Railway says it now plans to run its full Saturday timetable.
