Crews from Methwold, Downham Market and King's Lynn South were called to the scene on Lynn Road in Stoke Ferry shortly after 4pm on Friday (April 19).

A Norfolk fire service spokesman was unable to give an exact address for the incident, but a witness said it was the factory in the centre of the village.

A fire service spokesman initially said crews were dealing with a 'smouldering fire' within a feed table that goes underground.

The spokesman said the fire was in a confined space, adding: 'It is going to be difficult to get to.'

It is understood the fire was within the base of a silo.

Firefighters used ladders, main and hose reel jets to put out the deep seated fire.

They were supported by the urban search and rescue team.
