Flames tore through a caravan in a suspected arson attack.

The fire could be seen destroying the mobile home in Station Approach, Littlestone, New Romney yesterday evening.

Firefighters were called just before 7.30pm and tackled the flames for 30 minutes.

After the fire was put out, an image shows the mobile home reduced to rubble.

The caravan was not occupied at the time and no injuries were reported.
