A fire which killed a woman at a house in South Yorkshire was "likely" started by a cigarette igniting her clothes.

The un-named woman, in her late 70s, was found with "significant burn injuries" by crews called New Cross Drive in Sheffield on Sunday.

The fire service said the flames were out when they arrived at 12:30 GMT.
