Erpe-Mere In the Bosstraat in Mere is in the night from Thursday to Friday, a summer house near the tall chimney of The Graevesmolen completely burned out. The fire was about 2.30 pm noted from bakery François.
The bakery first alerted the fire brigade and the building starting from the bakery to the Bosstraat afgingen to the precise location to find it. Between the houses, it was soon fire noted at the summer house behind the home of Roger Boxstael and Magda Vanlede. Additional fire engines were called after firefighters from Aalst and Members – by the monarch in difficult circumstances – the fire extinguished. Because the water immediately ice formed on the street were also the municipal strooidiensten requisitioned. No one was injured, but the interior of the country house was completely in flames. The cause of the fire, which may have originated at the oak kitchen of the building is unclear.
