THE smell of burning was enough for Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) firefighters to be called to a property in Wem on Wednesday morning.

One crew from the town was sent to Roden Grove at around 3.35am after occupants could smell burning.

A spokesman for SFRS confirmed that firefighters attended and found evidence of a burning at an electricity input into the building.
