Two gorse fires at Mullion within hours of each other
Two gorse fires broke out within hours of each other in Mullion yesterday.
Firefighters from Mullion, St Keverne and Helston were first called out just before 3.30pm to a large fire involving approximately ten hectares of gorse.
They used beaters and a hosereel to put out the fire, over a number of hours.
However, just after 8.30pm two crews from Mullion were back, this time to a two-hectare area of gorse near Mullion Holiday Park.
This time beaters were enough to put out the flames.
