A SHED was "completely" destroyed as a fire ripped through a garden.

The fire broke out in a garden in Marmion Avenue, Chingford, at about 8pm yesterday (April 3).

Crews arrived to find a garden shed engulfed in flames as the blaze threatened to destroy a summer house, a fence and a single storey garage.

Three fire engines and 14 firefighters and officers had the fire under control by 9.20pm.

Crews from Chingford, Woodford and Walthamstow fire stations attended the scene.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
