A spokesperson for Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said: “Multiple crews are tackling a fire in the Pinehurst area of Swindon located on a street off Whitworth Road.

”Due the large amount of smoke, local residents are advised to keep windows and doors closed.”

It’s understood that a bonfire spread to nearby fences and bushes, affecting at least three gardens. Garden furniture and a hot tub has been destroyed.
