Multiple fire crews dealt with a late night blaze in a Cambridgeshire village over the weekend.
Firefighters were called to Long Causeway in Coveney to a “well-developed fire” involving a large stack of baled hay.
Crews from Burwell, Sutton, Chatteris and March helped tackle the blaze just before 11.20pm on Saturday night.
A Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: “Working with a farmer, they contained the fire and stopped it from spreading, using hose reels to dampen down the area and a positive pressure ventilation fan to help the stack to burn out.”
The cause of the fire was deliberate.
