Fire crews battle farm blaze

Eight fire crews are attending the blaze

A blaze at a farm in County Armagh in which 5,000 bales of hay caught fire, has been brought under control by fire fighters.

The alarm was raised at about 1730 GMT on Saturday at the farm at Charlemont, close to the border with County Tyrone.

Eight fire crews and a water tanker were called to tackle the blaze.

The fire service said strong winds made their task more difficult.

The oil tank of a nearby house was threatened by the blaze.
