Fire crews remain at the scene of a fire in a large barn. Two teams of firefighters entered the barn with hose reel jets to limit the spread of the fire. The power to the barn was isolated by the supply company.
Firefighters have continued to damp the affected area down overnight, monitoring with a thermal imaging camera. Police also attended.
UPDATE 11:05 | Firefighters have now left the scene as temperature readings of the affected area are at normal. The barn has been cordoned off as the structure has been made unsafe due to the blaze.
An investigation into the cause of the fire has been carried out and it is believed the fire was started deliberately.
