Firefighters tackled three significant grass fires around London on Sunday afternoon.
The first was a blaze on Woolwich Common. Around two hectares of grass and shrubland was destroyed by the fire.
The Brigade's 999 Control Officers took 28 calls to the blaze.
The Brigade was called at 1436 and the fire was under control by 1619. Six fire engines and around 40 firefighters from Plumstead, East Greenwich, Eltham and Lee Green fire stations were at the scene.
Later, firefighters tackled a grass fire on Waterworks Lane in Hackney.
Around five hectares of grass and shrubland was destroyed by the blaze. The Brigade's 999 Control Officers took 16 calls to the fire.
The Brigade was called at 1536 and the fire was under control by 1609. Four fire engines and around 25 firefighters from Leyton, Stoke Newington and Homerton fire stations were at the scene.
Then at 1713, crews were called to a fire on Jail Lane in Biggin Hill. Around 10 hectares of crops at the rear of a golf club were alight.
The fire was under control by 1837. Four fire engines and around 25 firefighters from Addington, Biggin Hill and Bromley fire stations were at the scene.
Fortunately, there were no repots of any injuries from any of the fires.
A London Fire Brigade spokesperson said: “Whilst we have seen some rainfall, we’re asking Londoners not to be complacent. When the ground is very dry it’s harder for water to be absorbed, which is why we have seen flash flooding as the water pools on the surface, but it also means that grasslands are still parched and the smallest of sparks could cause a fire.
“Please continue to help us prevent grass fires by not barbecuing on open land, clearing away rubbish and glass and safely disposing of cigarettes.”
