A warning has been issued by the fire service after crews were called to 'out of hand' campfires during the heatwave.
Firefighters from Darwen were forced to respond to several fires during the heatwave at Jumbles Reservoir.
One of the blazes got out of hand ‘very fast', while the people who set a second fire also dismantled a stone wall to create it.
They are now asking that people do not light fires anywhere except in specifically-designated areas.
A spokesperson for the fire service said: “Firefighters from Darwen were forced to respond to several campfires during the heatwave.
“The first picture shows one which got out of hand very fast. As if that's not bad enough, the people who set the second fire also dismantled stone wall to create it.”
