Guernsey Police warned the public to avoid the Rue à Fresne area of Castel, after a large outside fire started there on Friday afternoon.

The road is now closed while emergency services they deal with the fire.

The wildfire is the latest to hit the Bailiwick, after blazes in recent months in Sark, and in several parts of Guernsey.

The fireworks at the North Show were also cancelled on Thursday night, due to the dry conditions making it a fire risk.
