A BOILER exploded when a fire broke out in a farmhouse off Rookery Lane, Crayke, near Easingwold, but no-one was injured.
Fire crews from Easingwold, Huntington and York dealt with the blaze, which caused heavy smoke damage to the utility room and lounge.
A backdraft during the fire made the central heating boiler explode. It was totally destroyed.
The cause of the fire is not yet known.
