'Beautiful inside and out' mum dies in fire

A MUM-OF-FOUR who tragically died in a house fire has been named as Kate Mulcahy.

Friends and neighbours have paid tribute to the beloved mother, understood to have had twin boys – born last year – and two girls.

Ms Mulcahy, 37, was found dead after a blaze broke out at a £1.2m home at Ramsden Farm, a cluster of upmarket homes off Roundthorn Road in Middleton in the early hours of Sunday.

The M.E.N. understands a number of children escaped, but Ms Mulcahy could not be saved. Formal identification has not yet taken place, but Ms Mulcahy’s family is being supported by specially-trained officers.

The house, neighbours said, was recently put up for sale, with signs appearing outside ‘four or five weeks ago’. An online listing for the house put its value at £1.2m. The listing has now been removed.
