Firefighters from the north of Hampshire were called out to a combine harvester alight in a field full of crops.

Just before 6pm yesterday (15 August) evening, Basingstoke, Tadley and Fleet engines arrived on the scene on Morgaston Road in Bramley.

HIWFRS used four sets of breathing apparatus, two hose reel jets and a Compressed Air Foam System (CAFS) jet to stop the blaze.

The vehicle suffered 40% damage in the fire before crews returned to station at 21:21.
