Six fire engines remain near the village of Daviot in the Highlands after the fire broke out at around 2.45pm on Saturday.
Fire crews are continuing to tackle a wildfire near Inverness which has burned throughout the night and reportedly covers an area a mile long.
Meanwhile, on social media, people in Inverness reported being able to smell smoke during the night. Duncan Macpherson, a Highland councillor for Inverness South, said firefighters were facing an “almighty challenge” on Saturday night. Images posted by Neil Wallace on social media show large plumes of grey smoke in the sky above Meallmore Hill, near Daviot. The fire started close to a caravan park at about 2.45pm on Saturday during what was the hottest day of the year so far in Scotland.
The Daviot fire follows one near Cannich in the Highlands, which began on May 28 and is believed to be one of the largest in the UK.
