Flames and billowing smoke were captured pouring from a Stokesley field after four sheds and a greenhouse set alight.

Emergency services were called to the incident in Stokesley at 10.11pm on Tuesday, October 15, after receiving a number of calls about a fire in the open.

Firefighters from Stokesley Fire Station were the first on the scene and asked Cleveland Fire Brigade colleagues from Coulby Newham to attend alongside a pump from the North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service base in Northallerton. 

The blaze involved three wooden sheds, a metal shed and a greenhouse, with the flames also spreading to a number of trees, bushes and undergrowth.
