A shipping container used to store surfing equipment has been destroyed by fire.

Crews were called at 3.15pm to Marine Parade in Minster, Sheppey.

When they arrived they found a 40ft container well alight.

Two hose reel jets and a fog spike were used to extinguish the fire, while cutting gear and electrical saws had to be used to access the container.

The incident was dealt with by 3.45pm.

The cause is believed to be a faulty generator.
