Police investigate Kent farm fire
Over 50 firefighters attended a huge fire in Kent on 11th January.
At its worst, 10 fire crews battled the fire which broke out in farm buildings near Staplehurst in Kent.
Local residents were asked to stay inside and keep all windows and doors shut as a huge plume of smoke spread across the area.
A spokesman for Kent Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that there were no casualties reported in the incident.
David Friday, from Fridays Limited, said that the business had been in the family for 50 years. In an interview with BBC News, he said: “A fire broke out at our Knoxbridge site near Cranbrook, Kent. Two hen houses were affected during the fire, one empty and one stocked. The Kent Fire and Rescue Services successfully controlled the fire around midday. All staff are accounted for and no injuries have been reported.”
