Hot ashes in wheelie bin start fire in Navenby

The fire service was called to the incident on High Street in the village just before 7.30pm.

A fire crew from Waddington attended but an occupant of the property used a garden hose to extinguish the fire before they arrived, but the plastic wheelie bin and its contents were badly damaged.

It was said to have started because hot ashes from a bonfire had been put in the bin.
