Volunteer firefighters from Palmerston fought a fire in
hay on a farm on Andersons Rd, above Andersons Inlet, on the
coast east of Palmerston, yesterday. Firefighter Jeff Turner
(above) tackles the blaze which was fanned by a near gale-force
southeast wind.
The farm is leased by Scott Clearwater, of Goodwood.
The brigade transported water by tanker from Palmerston to
fight the fire which was under control by noon.
Several bales of hay were destroyed.
