I was driving down Mill Lane Kingsthorpe about 4pm and noticed a lot of smoke on the horizon. When I was driving past the BP garage I could smell the smoke. I went through Kings Heath and it was all under smoke. I couldn't work out what was on fire but it seemed to be behind the houses in Kings Heath. I just got home and look on the Chron's website and the breaking news was about field fires near Lodge Farm.... I am not suprised with the heat at the moment but I hope it wasn't started deliberately...
