The cause of a caravan fire in Margate last night (July 8) is not yet known.
The caravan, which had previously been converted for use by a food business but then sold on, went up in flames at Dane Park at around 6.30pm.
It is understood that the vehicle had been left at the roadside for several months and had been “trashed” but in the last few days had been repainted.
