A fire destroyed a two-story shop at 67 Townsend Way in Topsham Saturday night, but firefighters extinguished the blaze before it spread to a nearby home.
A homeowner reported the fire just after 10 p.m. Firefighters from at least three departments battled the blaze. The heat melted the siding on the adjacent house but the flames didn’t spread.
No one was hurt in the fire.
The shop and home belong to Susan and Christopher Johnson, who bought the property a little over two years ago. A truck and tractor were stored in the building destroyed by the fire.
