Firefighters scrambled to tackle a large hay stack which had gone up in flames.

Crews from Wantage were called to tackle the fire in Farnborough shortly after 6am on Saturday.

The 'extremely intense' fire was quickly brought under control to ensure it didnt spread, although it destroyed most the hay.

Incident Commander, Crew Manager Stuart McDowall from Wantage Fire Station, said: ”Fire crews across the county are urging people to take great care, or avoid any form of fire to reduce the risk of it spreading."

Thames Valley Police are investigating the cause of the fire.
