Anyone know what's happening tonight in Ware? As I saw smoke billowing up from nr the river at about 5:20pm and since then heard numerous emergency vehicle sirens heading past the Ware Rd speed camera. Think they heading down somewhere between the Giplin and possibly Amwell round
about.

You're not a good judge of distance!
A barn and farm buildings were alight ... in Wareside.
Eight fire engines attended with some services still on site at 1am.
The smoke was visible from quite a distance - Hertford and beyond. I overheard quite a few people speculating on the location, some putting it in Stansted Abbots, others on The Meads.
