One crew from Hodnet was sent to Great Bolas just before midnight on Tuesday to deal with the blaze involving about 10m by 25m of straw.

They used two hose reel jets to extinguish and damp down the fire and left about an hour later.

Police have been informed of the blaze because there was a similar incident nearby in the last few weeks.
