The fire quickly spread to nearby gardens so four further crews were called in.
There are now nine fire engines there dealing with a very large grassland/wildfire.
A spokesman said: “Please avoid Repton Road, Skellow.
“We know it's hard - but we're also asking people living nearby to shut windows and doors for their own safety.”
If anyone sees a fire report it on 999.
