A road in Wisbech was closed as firefighters tackled a bonfire that was out of control.

One crew from Wisbech was called to the blaze on Burrett Road at around 2:15pm today (Thursday September 8).

Burrett Road was closed in both directions as firefighters tackled the fire, which took just under an hour to extinguish.

The cause of the fire was accidental and the road has since re-opened.
