Fire crews from Doncaster were called into action after flytipped rubbish was set ablaze.

Firefighters from Askern Fire Station attended the incident at 10.30pm last night on Churchfield Road, Campsall.

A spokesman said: “Wasn't the easiest job to find being on top of the hill on the 'pit top,’ approximately 700m from the road.

"However on arrival it was a pile of fly tipped waste, well alight.”

There have been a number of deliberately set fires in and around Askern in recent weeks.
