Firefighters have urged people not to light fires in woods after they were called to an incident at Gilstead, near Bingley.
A passer by raised the alarm after spotting the fire in woods at the side of Primrose Lane in the village last night. Crews from Bingley quickly put out the flames.
But a spokesman said: “These fires can soon get out of control, particularly in the tinder dry conditions.”
