  • 6 years ago
Aerial footage shows the extent of the damage caused by a large gorse fire in North Wales.

The clip, captured today (July 7), shows the mountain area in Pentre Halkyn, Flintshire, where the fire consumed around 500 square metres of gorse.

The filmer writes: ''I saw first hand the site and how much the fire had spread.

''Incredible that they managed to put it out and that it didn't spread further.''

Flintshire Countryside Service has issued a warning over the increased risk of wildfires as the heatwave continues, reports say.
