FIREFIGHTERS had a smelly challenge to deal with today.

Crews from the Tadley and Fleet stations were called to a small fire at a riding school in New Road, Pamber Green, today at 10.40am.

The fire involved two tonnes of manure which was well alight and was close to an electricity pole.

Firefighters used two hose reels to put out the flames and prevented the electricity pole from being affected by the fire.

Crews left the scene at 12.27pm.
