Fire crews tackled an electricity pole fire near Nantwich on Christmas Day.
The incident happened on Dairy Lane at around 4am yesterday (December 25).
A fire crew from Nantwich were called out and Dairy Lane was closed after emergency and electricity services attended.
Power cables had failed and closures were in place as there was a risk of falling cables.
A Cheshire Fire spokesperson said: “Once the electricity was isolated, firefighters used hose reel jet to dampen down the pole after a small fire had broke out and self extinguished.
“A thermal imaging camera was used to monitor a nearby home to ensure there were no hotspots.”
