FIREFIGHTERS have been battling a blaze at a site in Tilbury this afternoon (Sunday, 13 August).

When firefighters arrived at the site on Dock Road, they reported the fire was affecting an area used to store fridges for recycling, scrap metal and a 40 foot container with bikes and plastics inside.

There were also a number of cylinders on site.

Crews from across the county were drafted in to take the incident.

Firefighters fully extinguished the fire by 7:30pm. An investigation will take place to find the cause of the fire.
