FIREFIGHTERS tackled a kitchen fire in Hindley on Monday night.

Three crews were sent to a semi-detached house on Cinnamon Avenue around 7.05pm to extinguish the blaze which involved a grill pan.

A spokesman for Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service said: "Firefighters wearing two breathing apparatus used one hose reel to extinguish the fire as well as a positive pressure ventilation fan to disperse the smoke."

Crews were on the scene for around 30 minutes.
