The feathered family managed to get themselves stuck in some netting in the thatched roof of a cottage in Mill Lane, Fishbourne.

Crews were called just before 10am on Thursday (May 3) and climbed to the top of the property.

The fire service said they managed to save the ducklings and - after posing for photos - the family were taken to a nearby pond, where they were dropped in the water for their first swim.
