Fire Inside Building
Connon Bridge, near Liskeard at 04/10/2022 05:54
At 05:54hrs our Critical Control Centre was alerted to reports of smoke coming from a pile of green waste within a building. An appliance from Liskeard Fire Station was immediately mobilised.
On arrival the incident commander requested an additional appliance to provide extra water. A large pile of green waste was creating smoke inside the building. The green waste was segregated into a compartment and crews used one hose reel jet and breathing apparatus to damp down the pile.
Site staff assisted turning over the pile using mechanical shovels.
The fire was confirmed as extinguished at 06:57hrs and the incident was handed over to on site staff.
