Sandall Park has been hit by several arson incidents – although the fires were before this week’s series of wildfires which ravaged Doncaster.
A spokesman for Friends of Sandall Park, the volunteer group which looks after the park said: “Sadly two children have been starting fires in Sandall Park - both fires were put out by a member of the public.

“Please warn children about the dangers and also the consequences of arson and criminal damage to another person’s property.
“This may prevent a serious crime from being committed.
“Action will be taken against anyone causing deliberate damage in the park.”
The warning comes after devastating wildfires left a trail of destruction across Doncaster as the city baked in record 40c temperatures.
