Firefighters tackled a blaze at an allotment site last night.

The crew attended the scene at the junction of Rundells and Riddings Lane between Harlow and Thornwood at 11.20pm following reports of a shed on fire.

Firefighters reported that the shed was "well alight" when they arrived and that a gas cylinder was involved.

Associated gardening equipment was also damaged in the blaze.

The incident is not being investigated.
