Arsonist blamed as barn destroyed
Thursday 4th March 2010, 1:00PM GMT.
A Shropshire farmer was counting the cost today after one of his biggest barns burned to the ground in a suspected arson attack.
Colin Williams said workers raised the alarm the barn was alight at Wootton Farm, in Quatt, near Bridgnorth, just after seeing a man fleeing the field and speeding off in a car.
Half a dozen firefighters were expected to be at the site until tomorrow to keep the fire under control.
