A fire in a garden shed has spread to five houses and two vehicles, causing substantial damage.

Six Hampshire and Surrey fire crews were called at 16:00 BST on Saturday to Birch Road in Bordon and took three hours to control the blaze.

No-one was injured but two pet dogs were rescued from a property and given oxygen therapy, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service said.

The cause of the fire is thought to be an electrical fault, it added.
