FIREFIGHTERS were called to a skip that had been set on fire.

When the crew arrived in Bridges Road just before 2.50pm yesterday (Sunday, September 9) they found the fire had spread to a nearby portable cabin that was well alight.

A Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "Crews, two wearing breathing apparatus, used a hose reel jet to extinguish the fire.

"The fire is believed to have been started deliberately.

"If you have any information about the incident then please call Cheshire Police."
