Firefighters have tackled a container blaze at a Cumbrian household recycling centre.
Emergency services were called to the Maryport centre on the Solway Trading Estate on Sunday.
Maryport Groundworks was asked to help and its team dragged the container to safe location so firefighters could gain better access.
Maryport Groundworks said: “Once the council hookloader arrived to tip and empty the skip, the fire service confirmed it was fully out.

“After everything was checked and safe, a new skip was reloaded.
“We’re always happy to support our local emergency services – no matter the time or day.”
