Firefighters spent nine hours tackling a raging barn fire.

At 9pm on Friday and all through the night until 6am on Saturday crews were hosing gallons upon gallons of water onto the blaze in Dartford Road, Hextable.

Around 300 tonnes of baled straw as well as farming machinery was alight.

The barn, measuring 60 by 20 metres, was completely up in flames.

No injuries have been reported.
