A fire swept through a barn near a railway line containing around 100 tonnes of hay this week.

Firefighters from Gerrards Cross, Beaconsfield, Slough and two officers battled the blaze at Bull Lane, near the railway line on the Gerrards Cross/Chalfont St Peter border, which was thought to have started at around 2pm on Tuesday.

Crews used three ground monitors (main jets secured to the ground) and four sets of breathing apparatus.

Relief crews were at the scene throughout the night from around 7pm onwards.
