Santon hedgerow fire extinguished

Fire train and engine work together

Fire crews were called to extinguish around 50 metres of hedgerow after it caught alight in Santon earlier today (13 July).

They were supported by Isle of Man Railways' fire train to bring the blaze under control before a fire engine attended.

The fire service says it's seen an increase in outdoor fires and is asking people to take care to avoid such incidents happening.
