A fire broke out at a York nature reserve this afternoon (Sunday).
Firefighters were called to Strensall Common at 12.46pm to a fire in a fallen tree.
A North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service spokesperson said: “Camp site personnel assisted in breaking up the tree and using buckets of water, with fire crews using a knap sack sprayer.”
The fire is now out.
It comes less than three months after a dozen fire crews tackled a major blaze at Strensall Common, which left a huge area of the reserve scorched.
