The cause of the fire which ripped through an HMO near Great Yarmouth seafront has been undetermined.

Officers from Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service have confirmed they were unable to access the building to conduct a full investigation into the cause of Saturday morning's blaze at the Ashwood on Nelson Road South as safe access was not possible.

Thirty residents of the house of multiple occupancy (HMO) were left without a place to live, but Great Yarmouth Borough Council opened a rest centre at St George’s Theatre to provide short-term accommodation and support for those in need.

No one was injured as a result of the fire.
