At its peak, over 100 firefighters were at the Hoo Farm fire with people living in Kidderminster warned to keep their doors and windows shut.

They included firefighters from Shropshire and West Midlands Fire Service.

Road closures are still in place, though many are now reopened, and schools near the fire are closed today.

Fire crews from Evesham brought their water carrier to Hoo Farm from the initial call and have also provided relief fire engines when needed.

The carrier carries two large water dams that hold a reserve of water which allows the carrier to go away and refill.
