FIREFIGHTERS have been called to Brighstone Forest this morning (Saturday) after smoke was reported rising above the trees.
At 9.33am, a single fire engine from Newport was called to the scene.
Firefighters are presently conducting an investigation, though a spokesperson for Hampshire Fire and Rescue said the rain is likely to have doused any potential fire.
More to follow.
