Chip shop owners have thanked the ‘brilliant’ people of Ottery for their support after a fire forced the temporary closure of the business.

Rosey’s Chippy, in Tip Hill, reopened this month and is, once again, a thriving favourite among residents in the town.

The business was forced to shut for eight weeks in the wake of a blaze that left the interior damaged by flames and smoke.

Sarah Rose runs the chip shop along with her husband Philip.

She said: “We want to thank everyone in the town for their support and offers of help. They have been brilliant. We look forward to welcoming customers old and new.”
