A man was treated for smoke inhalation after a fire broke out at a holiday park.
Firefighters were called to Westmarsh, near Sandwich, on Sunday after a fire broke out in a camper van’s engine at about 6pm and spread to a hedge.
Crews gave one man oxygen therapy for the effects of breathing in smoke after discovering the blaze.
He was then handed into the care of the ambulance service.
Wearing breathing apparatus, crews used a high pressure hose reel and main jet to extinguish the fire.
They left the scene at 7.35pm.
