A wildfire is continuing to burn on moorland near Greater Manchester.
The blaze broke out on Marsden Moor, over the West Yorkshire border from Saddleworth, at around 1.30pm yesterday afternoon (Monday). Huge plumes of smoke could be seen billowing from the moorland.
Just after 4.30pm, the fire was reported to be 500m x 500m in size. It then grew to cover an area of around 1km x 1km, the fire service said.
