It's emerged that a large quantity of diesel ended up in the river Culm after a fire at a nearby farm in the early hours of the morning.
A workshop and three outbuildings at Clayhidon were left badly damaged.
The fuel in the river was contained with booms and the Environment Agency thinks there'll be no long-term impact - there's no evidence that any fish have died.
The cause of the fire was accidental.
