Crews tried to make an interior attack from the rear and push the fire back into the room but were unsuccessful do to the fact that fire had already spread to the attic before their arrival.
It took 25 firefighters opperating four engines, one tower ladder and one rescue about 1.5 hrs to contain the blaze.
