At 11.54pm on Saturday (31) crews from Dogsthorpe, Stanground, Thorney, Wisbech, March, Manea, Chatteris and Ramsey were called to a fire in the open on Knights End Road in March.

Firefighters arrived to find a fire in a scrap yard involving an industrial shredding unit and gas cylinders.

They used hose reels and jets to extinguish the fire. Then then dampened the area down, before returning to their stations by just after 3pm.

The cause of the fire was accidental.
