It was brought under control - near Barnacullia - in the early hours of this morning and no properties were in any danger.

It was a busy night for fire crews, as six units were sent to deal with a waste fire in the Ballycoolin area.

While staff from Rathfarnham and Dolphin's Barn extinguished two empty buses which caught alight off the Blessington road.
