FIREFIGHTERS were called to Canford Heath to tackle a blaze last night.

Two crews from Poole and a Land Rover pump from Redhill Park were sent to the scene at around 8pm.

A spokesperson for Dorset and Wiltshire Fire Control said a number of calls had been made to the service.

The fire involved an area of 15m x 20m. 

Poole Fire Station tweeted afterwards: "Poole mobilised to fire on Candford Heath. Quick response from Green Watch prevented it spreading to a large incident."
