A vehicle has been destroyed following an early morning fire close to a new housing development in Bordon.

A crew from Bordon fire station found a car well alight after being called to a private track off Bolley Avenue around 1.21am on Tuesday (May 3).

Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used a hose reel to fight the intense blaze close to the Oxney Quarter.

They also used a thermal imaging camera to target the main heat, but the fire ultimately destroyed the vehicle.

The cause of the fire has not been ascertained but is thought to be suspicious as the police were informed before firefighters left the scene.

The stop message was received shortly after 2am.
