Fire investigators were at work today after a blaze tore through the roof of a Mid Sussex family's home.
More than 25 firefighters from Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill battled the fire at a large detached house in Beckworth Close, Lindfield, just before noon yesterday.
Firefighters managed to salvage property from the first floor but the roof was destroyed.
The family who own the house were not at home. Its cause is being investigated.
