Their attendance was reduced to two fire engines by Saturday morning and people living in the area were advised to avoid the area.
SYFR worked alongside partner agencies including Nottingham and West Yorkshire fire and rescue services and the Environment Agency in its response to the incident.
They left the scene on Saturday evening after making sure no hot spots were developing.
