Fire crews have been tackling around 100 tonnes of burning rubbish at the Smugglers Way recycling centre.

The brigade was called at around quarter to one this morning.

It’s believed the fire was accidental and caused by the failure of a lithium battery.

A spokesperson for the brigade says that people should check their council’s website for instructions on disposing of them safely.

There are no reports of any injuries.
