Fire crews battling to stop fire at Staffordshire farm
Fire crews from across Staffordshire worked to put out a substantial fire at a farm.
Crews from Cannock, Penkridge and Stafford were called to the scene of the fire at the Deanery Farm on Whiston Road in Penkridge.
More than 15 firefighters and three appliances worked to control the fire, which took hold in a large amount of logs and wood on fire next to a garage.
One appliance was used to fight the fire, while another was dampening down the area and a third helping with removing the wood from the scene.
The fire started at around 2.30pm on Saturday.
A spokeswoman for Staffordshire Fire and Rescue said: "We were called to reports of a serious fire at the Deanary Farm in Penkridge.
