Fire at £11m property

The Fire and Rescue Service sent three fire engines, including one from the Western Fire Station, to Beauport Battery, Chemin de Beauport, St Brelade, at 5.37 pm on Wednesday, and the police, honorary police and an ambulance also attended.

As fire crews approached the luxury coastal property, they were met with large flames and thick black smoke billowing across St Brelade’s Bay from the site.

The scale of the fire led to a request for further resources from an already stretched service that was simultaneously responding to an incident on the other side of the Island – in that incident, a grill pan had set alight at a property in Gorey which firefighters quickly put out after responding at 5.30 pm.
