An electrical pole on fire sparked an emergency response.
Firefighters were called to the blaze in a field off the A352 in the Forston area near Dorchester at 10,30pm last night.
An off-road firefighting crew had to be called so crews could get close to the pole and tackle the fire.
A spokesman for Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "Fire control mobilised a crew from Dorchester and one from Weymouth to a fire involving an electrical pole.
"Once in attendance the crew requested the attendance of an off road vehicle due to the location of the pole. This came from Beaminster fire station.
"The crews then stood by whilst the electricity board isolated the pole and the incident was handed over to them to resolve."
