Billowing smoke prompts call-out for Burnham-On-Sea fire crew

-

These were the scenes in Brean on Wednesday afternoon (February 6th) when billowing smoke led to a call-out for Burnham-On-Sea firefighters.

One engine was sent to the Three Acres Caravan Park in the centre of the resort at 5.15pm after local residents raised the alarm after seeing the black smoke rising into the sky.

However, a fire spokesman told Burnham-On-Sea.com that the incident had been a false alarm with good intent.

“We were called to Brean to investigate, but in fact the fire on this occasion was caused by controlled burning.”
