Firefighters have shone a spotlight on tackling blazes in a bygone era by sharing some vintage photographs.

Ashfield Fire Station posted a selection of photographs on its Facebook page from a house fire on Thorsby Road, Mansfield Woodhouse, which were taken in the 1970s.

And the photographs show just how much things have changed.

The post said: “Two fire appliances are in the picture and you can clearly see one is from Mansfield Fire Station.

“The equipment has changed a lot since then.

"Keeping our communities safe.”
