Visitors to Chirk Castle were surprised to see fire engines among their fellow visitors today, after a call out for crews.
Three crews from North Wales Fire Service (NWFS) were called out to the castle at about 1.31pm today (August 28).
A spokesman said the call-out was to deal with a fire inside a piece of equipment, and did not relate to the castle building itself.
A spokesperson for NWFS said: “The engines were called out to the Castle to deal with a fire inside the pallet hopper."
The crews are still at the scene of the incident as of 4pm.
Chirk Castle was contacted for comment on the call-out.
