FIREFIGHTERS tackled a large fire at a Barnsley tyre recycling depot.
Four engines were called to the incident at 5am, on Springvale Road, Grimethorpe, on Friday morning.
A large amount of tyres were well alight when crews arrived. Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used main jets to tackle the blaze and worked hard to prevent the fire from spreading to nearby premises.
Fire crews advised members of the public to keep their doors and windows closed as there was a large amount of smoke in the area.
An investigation into the cause of the blaze is set to start.
