The fire began at Fordhall Farm, in Tern Hill, at about 4.15pm yesterday.

Two fire crews were sent to the blaze from Hodnet and Market Drayton.

The outdoor fire at the community-owned farm, on Tern Hill Road, involved an external fridge unit and crews used a hosereel jet to put out the flames.

An operations officer also attended the fire and the flames were put out by 4.40pm.

Lifestock on the farm was unharmed.
