Residents Advised to Close Windows and Doors Due to Outbuilding Fire in Boxley

Firefighters are currently tackling a fire in a derelict outbuilding on Harp Farm Road, Boxley, near Maidstone. Residents in the surrounding area are being urged to keep windows and doors closed due to smoke from the blaze.

Two fire engines from Maidstone are at the scene as crews work to bring the fire under control. While there is no immediate threat to the public, the advice to close windows is a precautionary measure to minimize the impact of smoke inhalation.

Authorities are asking locals to share this information with neighbours and loved ones, particularly those who may not have access to the internet.

Further updates will be provided as the situation develops.
