Firefighters spent more than 13 hours tackling a blaze which ripped through a farm building in a Fife village.

Four crews were called to the fire in Colinsburgh near Leven at around 6pm on Friday after hay bales caught fire.

A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) spokeswoman confirmed the last crew left the scene shortly after 7am today.

Appliances from St Andrews were amongst those in attendance as firefighters used hose reel jets to quell the blaze.

Eyewitnesses said that paramedics were also in attendance.

Police Scotland urged nearby residents to stay inside whilst the incident was ongoing and to keep all windows and doors closed.

‘Remain indoors’

A spokesman said: “Police in north east Fife were assisting Scottish Fire and Rescue Service at the scene of a fire at a farm outbuilding in Colinsburgh.

“The incident was reported around 6pm on Friday.

“There are no reports of any injuries.

“Officers asked members of the local community in Collinsburgh to remain indoors at this time and keep their windows and doors closed, due to the smoke and fumes.”
