It is the second fire in Duffryn in under a week as the South Wales Fire and Rescue service attended a woodland fire near Partridge Way at around 6.15pm on Wednesday, July 26.

Sarah Lewis, a local, said the fires are not a “rare occurrence.”

Ms Lewis said: “It's not a rare occurrence, there is rubbish being set fire to inside and on the border of the woodland often, and it's only going to get worse with the 3-weekly collection.”
