Vehicles, hedgerow damaged in Rackenford fire

Large outbuilding ablaze

A fire at Rackenford, seven miles north of Tiverton, has left several vehicles, tools and hedgerow severely damaged.

Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue were alerted by a member of the public at around 11.30 on Saturday night to a large outbuilding on fire.

Appliances from Witheridge, South Molton and Tiverton initially headed to the scene, to be quickly joined by two water carriers from Barnstaple, central Exeter's station, Danes Castle and a second crew from Tiverton. Water for the fire was transported by bowlers and from a dam.

No one is reported hurt in the incident and no details have yet been released about the cause.
