A Hereford school will stay shut for the rest of the week after a fire on neighbouring land.
St David’s Centre on Coningsby Street says the blaze damaged its boundary and left the site insecure.
The closure, the second in recent months due to nearby fires, will be reviewed on Thursday after talks with the local authority.
Sheds housing nearly 200,000 broiler chickens at a Herefordshire farm are to be demolished and rebuilt to a higher standard.
A planning application by Avara Foods, one of the county’s largest employers, says the replacement sheds at Parkway Farm, Madley west of Hereford would have the same footprint as the current eight within the two-hectare site, and “will not result in any increase in floor area, bird numbers, or operational intensity”.
