Eight fire engines and a bulk water carrier are being used to battle a barn blaze.
Emergency services were called to Leysdown Road in Eastchurch, on Sheppey at noon today.
Residents are being advised to keep their windows and doors closed almost five hours after the fire started.
A spokesman for the fire service said: “People are still being advised to keep their windows and doors closed in the Leysdown Road area in Eastchurch and motorists are advised to avoid the area.
“This is due to a large amount of smoke coming from a barn on fire which is being extinguished by crews.”
