A large fire is still being tackled by firefighters after it broke out in Ely, Cardiff. The blaze has been raging across 100 tonnes of timber at a wood yard off Birdies Lane and Mill Road, according to a South Wales Fire and Rescue Service spokeswoman.
A large number of firefighters were at the scene this morning continuing to deal with the incident, and watering down smouldering ruins.
A fire service spokeswoman said last night (May 24): "We were called at 7.30pm and attended with four fire engines and two water bowsers. We're using water bowsers to supply water from the River Ely to fight the fire and a 45-inch jet. There are no other hazards and no casualties. We expect to be in attendance for some time but it is under control."
