The occupants of a static caravan fled after a blaze engulfed its roof.

Folkestone's fire crew went to New Dover Road in Capel-le-Ferne at 8.20pm last night after the caravan owners phoned the emergency services.

Firefighters spent more than two hours at the scene putting the fire out as it was contained in the roof.

The furnishings inside were not damaged.

The cause of the fire is still being investigated.
