Two vans and two cars have caught fire in a car park near a Swindon pub.
Emergency services were called to Bridge End Road following reports of a raging blaze at around 12.20pm today (Friday).
Four vehicles – two vans and two cars – were engulfed in flames in a yard, which appears to belong to S&R Motors and is next to The Dockle Farmhouse.
Small explosions were heard as the tyres popped from the intense heat. Nobody is thought to have been injured.
It’s understood the two vans were completely destroyed in the incident, while the cars sustained less significant fire damage.
Wiltshire Police have closed the road in both directions, and directed pedestrians away from the scene.
A spokesperson Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said: “We are currently dealing with an incident in a car park off Bridge End Road, Stratton where two vans are well alight.
“We were called at 12.18pm today, November 7, and we have two crews from Stratton and one from Swindon on scene, using two breathing apparatus wearers, two hose reel jets and a main jet to extinguish the fire.”
