FIREFIGHTERS were called to a bedroom fire in Westleigh, Leigh.
The fire broke out at around 6.30pm last night at the flat in Kilburn Close.
The flat was empty, but it is believed carelessly discarded smoking materials may have cause the blaze which burned out the bedroom and left the rest of the flat badly smoke damaged.
