By the time they got there it was well alight and the kids had left. I had a similar incindent a while ago and reported this to one of the parents that lived close by, the other kids were on push bikes and i believe they go to Southbrook school. If the fire had gotten hold in the trees we could have lost a couple of houses so Please parent be aware and see if your kids are up to mischief in the area. Thank you.
