Kent Fire and Rescue Service was called to reports of an out of control bonfire on Sponden Lane, Sandhurst, near Cranbrook.

Two fire engines attended and crews used a wildfire hose and beaters to extinguish the fire.

There are no reported injuries and the cause is not yet known.

If you're planning a bonfire, particularly in the summer months when the ground can be extremely dry, remember:

• Supervise the burning at all times
• Keep bonfires to a manageable size, and build them clear of property and greenery
• When having a bonfire always keep a bucket of water or hosepipe nearby

If a bonfire gets out of control, move to safe place and call 999
