A spokesman said: "Usually these calls were related to bonfires but when firefighters arrived they found these fires were at an organised event, being supervised properly."

Two calls involved a bonfire having been put out by the time firefighters arrived.

Another calls involved a barbecue, which needed to be safely moved away from a bonfire by firefighters.

Seven of the calls received needed some sort of response.

Most involved unattended bonfires which firefighters put out using aqua packs, beaters, and hoses.

A spokesman said: "It was a fairly busy night for the service but nothing that was bonfire-related was of real significance.

"There were no reports of injuries or of anyone being hurt."
