A FIRE at a farm in Ledbury was fought by crews from across the region.

Engines from Ledbury, Upton-upon-Severn, Fownhope, Bromyard and Malvern, as well as water carriers from Leominster and Peterchurch, were called out around 11.50pm on Sunday (July 28) in Bosbury, near Ledbury, where a barn, along with the hay inside, was alight.

Electric to the building was isolated to avoid further problems, while the 2,700 square meter barn was split into three to better contain the flames.

Relief crews from Worcester and Ross-on-Wye arrived at 4am, with further relief from Worcester and Hereford arriving at 7am.

While police and ambulance services were informed of the blaze, there were no casualties and neither was called out.
