A fire which completely destroyed a seafront property is being treated as suspicious.

Clacton Fire and Rescue Service was called to Brooklands, Jaywick, at 12.30am today. Both crews spent two hours tackling the blaze, which left the chalet home gutted.

Fire investigation teams are due at the site today to find out what the cause of the blaze was. The fire service was also called to Brooklands on two separate occasions overnight, in both cases to bonfires.
