NSW bushfire victims left with nothing as firies battle on

At least 120 homes and outbuildings have been destroyed and dozens more damaged by bushfires that raged across northern NSW.

Teams of assessors have been touring around Tingha and Tabulam, where three huge blazes have ripped through a combined 74,000 hectares of bushland since early last week.

The NSW Rural Fire Service said 32 houses have so far been destroyed and 21 homes damaged.

A further 88 outbuildings were destroyed and 31 damaged.

More than 700 homes and structures remained untouched, the RFS said.

"Teams will continue their work over coming days," it tweeted on Tuesday.

The three fires remain at Advice level, however crews are still fighting the blazes from the ground and air.
