Police have launched an appeal for help after a caravan was destroyed by fire in a field in Middlewich.

Firefighters were called to the incident near Warmingham Lane in Middlewich at 6.03 pm last night (Monday).

Two fire engines from Northwich and Middlewich went to the scene.

A spokesperson from Cheshire Fire & Rescue Service said: "Crews were called to a disused caravan that was well alight in a field in Middlewich.

"Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used one hose reel jet to extinguish the blaze and dampen down the surrounding area.

"The caravan was completely destroyed by the fire, and police were informed as it is believed to have been started deliberately.

"If anyone knows anything about how this fire started please call Cheshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
