Fire guts 18th century Grade II Cosgrove Hall mansion

A fire has gutted the Grade II-listed, privately-owned mansion Cosgrove Hall, near Milton Keynes in Northamptonshire.

The fire service was called to the privately-owned Cosgrove Hall, near Milton Keynes, just before 14:30 BST, and BBC reporter Stuart Ratcliffe: ‘Only the stone shell of the building remains. There really is nothing else.’

The fire at the 18th Century limestone mansion had been been brought under control by 17:15. There are no reports of any injuries.  At least six crews from Northamptonshire tackled the fire, helped by engines from Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire.
