Residents of Deans Drive, Christ Church, described yesterday’s large grass fire on two nearby fields as the worst they have had to endure.

Fire officials received an emergency call about the fire near the Globe Drive-In, Adams Castle, Christ Church, around 12:14 p.m.

Two tenders from the Bridgetown fire station responded around 12:31 p.m., with seven fire officers under the command of Leading Fire Officer Patrick Smith.

Two tenders, one from Worthing and the other from St John, circled the area in the event that back-up was needed.
