FIREFIGHTERS were called out to tackle a shed fire in Winsham this morning.

Crews from Chard attended the incident on Cow Down Road just after 7am today (Sunday, August 20).

The shed, which measured 8m x 4m, was well alight when the team arrived.

They quickly got to work using a compressed air foam jet and drag forks to exinguish the blaze.

The crews then used a thermal imaging camera to ensure the shed was safe.

The police also attended the incident.
