Fire crews were called out to tackle a house fire in Aberdeenshire.
Three engines from Ellon were called out at 2:15pm today to attend a living room fire at Mill of Towie near Ellon.
A Scottish Fire and Rescue spokeswoman said: “Three crews were in attendance at the two-floor property and dealt with fighting a living room fire on the ground floor.
“Some small gear was in use as the crews were cutting away to find the source of the fire.
“The message to stop was received from the units at 4pm.”
“All occupants were out of the property and there where no reports of any casualties.”
A unit was called out with thermal imaging equipment as crews had initially failed to identify the source of the fire.
