Farmington, NH - At about 1:05 P.M. on March 15th, Stafford County Dispatch received a 911 call for a shed on fire at 211 Main Street in Farmington.
Upon arrival of first-in fire units the description was a 20'x30' first story garage fully involved.
Farmington Engines 3 and 4 were on scene within minutes as Fire Headquarters is five minutes away from the scene. Water supply was not a problem, as a four-inch supply line was laid from the hydrant to Engine 3, less than 50-feet to fire scene.
Due to the quick arrival of two fire crews from Farmington, the first-alarm assignment was returned except for Milton, NH Engine 3 that was en route. Main Street was closed due to fire incident in both directions for about one hour.
No injuries were reported. Considerable overhaul was needed and the fire was declared out within one hour.
Farmington PD assisted with traffic and crowd control. Milton EMS and Milton NH FD Engine 3 were also on scene.
The garage suffered extensive damage due to fire and smoke damage.
