Fire crews were at the scene of a waste fire for more than 12 hours. Firefighters were called to Northwall Road in Deal yesterday evening, just after 7pm following reports that a large amount of rubbish was alight. Two fire engines were sent to the scene where crews extinguished the flames, before maintaining a watching brief overnight to make sure it did not reignite. No injuries were reported and the cause is not yet known. Crews left the scene just after 7:30am this morning.
