    Large fire at recycling plant

    Fire crews have been dealing with a large fire at recycling centre in east Devon.


    They were called out to Greendale Barton at Woodbury Salterton yesterday morning where about 400 tonnes of wood, which was being stored outside, had gone up in flames.

    Extra equipment and crews were brought in, including an incident support unit, an appliance with compressed foam capacity, and mechanical diggers to create fire breaks.

    The fire service was expecting to spend last night (Sunday) at the scene.
