A bonfire which had been left unattended to burn was put out by fire crews yesterday evening after fears the fire could spread.

Marlborough and Royal Wootton Bassett fire stations sent crews to the fire on Swindon Road, Winterbourne Monkton at around 7pm yesterday evening.

The fire was put out and an extra water tank was sent from Wootton Bassett to dampen the area.

No one was injured during the incident.
