A HOUSE fire caused police to close a road in Hay-on-Wye last night.
The fire started in the roof space of Oxford Cottage and affected two neighbouring properties on Oxford Road, which was closed for some time between Church Street and Lion Street.
Fire crews from Eardisley, Peterchurch, Hay and Talgarth attended the scene at around 4.40pm as well as an aerial appliance from Llandrindod Wells.
The fire service said a search of the property was carried out by officers, but no-one was found and no injuries were reported.
