Property fire in Longburton Picture: Sherborne Fire Station
FIREFIGHTERS attended a dramatic blaze in Longburton.
The property fire saw a crew from Sherborne joined by firefighters from over the border in Yeovil, who also provided backup with a water carrier as they battled the flames during the incident, which happened on Monday at around 2.49pm.
A spokesman for Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "Crews quickly got to work using a main line to prevent further fire spread to other buildings.
"Crews also removed cylinders (from the property) to a safe area and left to cool. Once Yeovil crews arrived, they assisted by setting up further main lines and their water carrier supplied water."
Crews left the scene at around 7.05pm.
