Firefighters are mopping up, after a shed fire spread to a neighbouring house in Waltham, Christchurch, sending plumes of black smoke across neighbouring suburbs.

Fire and Emergency say four trucks attended the fire shortly before 4pm Saturday.

When they arrived, they found a garden shed well ablaze, with flames spreading to the roof of a neighbouring home, before the fire was brought under control.

A FENZ spokesperson said the fire was not being treated as suspicious.
