hatfieldcashmore.jpgMatthew Cashmore of BBC Backstage has posted this photo of a major fire in Hatfield. Just spoken to Herts Fire and Rescue they say 12 engines are in attendance, but it sounds as though nobody has been injured. More pictures over at Matt's Flickr page..

Matthew's also put up this video of the fire (see below). The Catherine he refers to is his wife who is also a journalist at Five Live and elsewhere!. 14 nearby homes have been evacuated because of the fire. The firebrigade say the fire is now undercontrol and at the damping down stage.

    Don't blame the material! If the site had been adequately secured and monitored, the fire would never have taken hold.

    Wood isn't the only material that burns!!! Its performance is at least predictable - it chars. Steel contorts and melts; concrete explodes!!!
