At 8:53pm last night, crews from around the county were mobilised to a fire in a commercial scrap yard at Five Turnings, Clun.
At its peak we had 8 appliances and specialist units on scene as the fire spread through several hundred tonnes of scrap.
With assistance from Hereford & Worcester Fire and Rescue Service, Gwasanaeth Tân ac Achub CGC / Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue, SFRS officers and our fantastic Fire Control; crews worked tirelessly to bring the fire under control.
We still have a presence on-scene to continue damping down the smoldering remains and expect to be there for at least the next 24 hours.
Our on-call crews were integral to fighting this fire and protecting nearby property, if you would like to join us as an on-call firefighter, visit: shropshirefire.gov.uk/on-call
