Crews were called out to several fires yesterday, and although none were serious fire chiefs have warned members of the public to be vigilant when on the moors.

A spokesman said: "We attended several small wildfires around the county yesterday.

"With the warm and sunny weather continuing today, please make sure you take extra care when you are walking on the moors."
