Wrapping paper causes Christmas Day chimney fire in Harrogate
Harrogate fire station on Skipton Road.
Harrogate firefighters were called out this morning to a chimney fire cause by wrapping paper.
The crew was called to Kingsley Road where paper burnt on a log burner had caused excess draw up the chimney.
The firefighters used tools to remove the hearth and checked the chimney breasts belonging to the property and the house next door as they shared a flue.
After the cause was discovered and the fire extinguished the firefighters installed a smoke alarm.
