Firefighters tackle blaze on agricultural land
FIREFIGHTERS tackled a blaze on farm land outside Andover in the early hours of this morning.
Four crews of firefighters were called at 12.12am to the fire in Red Post Lane, Little Park, where two outbuildings were ablaze.
One of the buildings was extensively damaged, as was a caravan, while firefighters also had to move three gas cylinders away from the fire.
Around 20 per cent of the other outbuilding also sustained damage.
Crews used breathing apparatus, hose reels, a jet and compressed air foam to put out the fire.
The crews from the Andover, Whitchurch, Eastleigh and Ludgershall fire stations were eventually stood down at 1.34am.
The cause of the fire is not thought to be suspicious.
