Lindsay Lot Road House Burns

On January 4, 1987 at 10:20 a.m. a 15 box was struck for 2225 Lindsay Lot Road for a house fire. A faulty thimble for a first floor wood stove sparked a blaze that caused heavy damage to an occupied 2-½-story frame house. The blaze began in a first floor wall and extended to the second floor and attic causing extensive structural damage. Firefighters from four companies operated on the scene under the direction Chief Jeff Washinger for over two hours. A damage estimate was not available. The Vigilant Hose, Cumberland Valley Hose and West End Fire and Rescue companies answered the alarm with assistance from the Fayetteville Vol. Fire Co.

I didn’t realize at the time but three fires in the last seven were in the Mainsville area that I posted, this was not intended just a coincidence.
