Crews attended a report of a fallen powerline arcing and causing tree branches in the vicinity to smoulder. Fire Service personnel closed the road in both directions until National Grid were able to attend to isolate the cable. The thermal imaging camera was used to ensure no lingering hotspots remained in the affected woodland. Fire Service personnel left the matter in the hands of National Grid.
