Watch: Fire crews tackle large open fire on the Long Mynd

Multiple crews spent the night tackling a large fire on the Long Mynd last night.

Firefighters from Church Stretton and Craven Arms fire stations were sent to blaze at High Park.

Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service said its crews prevented the fire from spreading towards wildlife using beaters and hose reel jets. 

Posting on social media - Church Stretton Fire Station said firefighters were also assisted by crews from Ludlow.

"Church Stretton fire station personnel dealt with a fire on the Longmynd at High Park, all personnel worked hard beating the fire out to stop any further spread due to the wind pushing the fire further on top of the Long Mynd."
