Firefighters battle farm blaze on Saturday night
Crews from Eastleigh, Fordingbridge, Service Headquarters, St Mary’s, Wickham, Ringwood, Liphook, Stockbridge, Fareham, Andover, Basingstoke, Hartley Wintney, Rushmoor, Emsworth, Winchester, Alton, Tadley, and Hardley attended a large fire at a farm in Upton Grey this evening. The fire involved a bonfire and two hay ricks containing 750 tonnes of hay.
