Campfire sparks warning

FIRE crews were forced to put out an abandoned campfire that could have caused a wildfire close to critical infrastructure.

Northumberland Fire and Rescue said it was "very lucky" the campfire, on Blaeberry Hill near Rothbury on Monday morning, did not develop into a larger blaze. The hill is home to two telecom masts that provide mobile signal for much of the Coquet Valley.
