FIREFIGHTERS tackled a blaze near a popular pub and restaurant this afternoon.

Crews from Keighley and Bingley fire stations were called out at 4.30pm to deal with a burning shed in a field next to Dick Hudsons, at High Eldwick.

They used a large water jet to extinguish the fire, which had been started accidentally. The shed was destroyed in the blaze.

The crews were at the scene for about an hour.
