Oakham firefighters are urging people who start fires in woodland to think seriously about the consequences,
especially during the dry summer weather we're experiencing. One of their crews dealt with a small fire recently in woodland locally. Firefighters say fires like this can easily get out of hand incredibly quickly in the current conditions.
