Firefighters Tackle Barn Fire in Bishops Waltham

At 6:15 PM on November 25, multiple fire crews responded to a large barn fire at a farm on Limekiln Lane in Bishops Waltham. The fire started in a barn containing approximately 500 tonnes of baled hay and quickly spread to neighbouring barns on the property.

Over 100 firefighters worked tirelessly alongside the farmer to bring the blaze under control, using jets, hose reels, and specialised foam to extinguish the flames and prevent further spread.

By early afternoon today, the incident was scaled down, with the stop message received just before 1:00 PM. Crews remained on-site to ensure the area was thoroughly dampened and secure.
