Paul and Mia Scott died earlier this year
A woman faces spending Christmas without her partner and daughter for the first time, after they both tragically died in a house fire. Neighbours rushed to the scene to try and help Caroline Scott’s partner Paul and their daughter Mia escape their home; however it was swept up in a blaze so strong that billowing smoke and flames became too overwhelming for anyone to get the father and daughter to safety.
Witnesses said that Archie's body appeared to be badly burned as neighbours put a ladder against the window. An inquest into the deaths of Paul and Mia was held on Thursday December 22 at Cockermouth Coroner's Court. "It felt like forever trying to get him out of the window. The smoke was so thick. Someone came over and said you've done as much as you can. Caroline was in disbelief I don't think she could take it in. They were shouting at Archie telling him to jump."
Mr Barton’s wife, Christine, issued a statement about the attempts made to rescue Mia, which read: "We ran round the back. One climbed on the single storey roof. I pointed to Mia's window. He was banging but there was no reply.
