A CAR crashed into a house near Salisbury on Sunday night (August 25).

Firefighters from Wilton were sent to the junction of Portfield Road and the unclassified route to Bishopstone at just after 9.35pm.

There, they discovered a silver Vauxhall Astra had crashed into a house near the junction.

“The crew were mobilised to what was first reported as a small vehicle fire at the junction of Portfield Road and the road leading to Bishopstone,” a DWFRS spokesperson said.

“Upon arrival, the crew didn’t find a vehicle on fire but a car that had managed to crash into a house close to the junction.

“Luckily, nobody was seriously injured and the house was confirmed as empty.”

The crew from Wilton made the vehicle safe and stayed on the scene until a building engineer was able to assess the structure and the car was removed, they added.
