Fire crews are dealing with a blaze on moorland near Greater Manchester. The National Trust says emergency services are working with rangers at the scene on Marsden Moor, in West Yorkshire, this afternoon (March 23).
The incident is close to Cupwith Reservoir, close to the A640 and a few miles from the border with Oldham at Saddleworth. It comes just days after crews dealt with another fire on Marsden Moor last Friday, at Pule Hill.
Crews tackled a 400m area of fire during last Friday's incident. It follows a prolonged period of dry weather across the country, with the north basking in sunshine over the past week.
