A tractor caught fire yesterday (Sunday, January 7) on a farm because of an engine fault.
Firefighters from Bishop's Castle and Clun rushed to Reilth Farm, near the Powys-Shropshire border after 1.38pm.
Crews used four breathing apparatus and two hose reel jets to extinguish the tractor which was "fully alight" in a field near Bishop's Castle.
A Shropshire Fire and Rescue spokesperson said there was "no mention of any animals rescued and we believe the fire to have been caused by an engine fault".
The incident came to an end at around 2.10pm.
