An investigation has been launched after a shed was found on fire in a suspected arson attack in Chesham this week.
Emergency services were called out to Upper Belmont Road on Monday at 5.15pm after firefighters received 40 calls about the fire, which had spread to the back gardens of six other properties and a conservatory.
At the time, Bucks Fire said the fire was believed to have started in a summerhouse.
A neighbour, who did not want to be named, spoke to the Bucks Free Press about her horror when she realised the fire had spread to her back garden, saying her young children screamed at her in terror to get out of the house.
Police confirmed an investigation is underway but no arrests have been made yet.
