The fire at Barktown Rd last night, photo from Fishers Rd, is currently contained but still out of control. An advice warning remains active.

Please stay alert and ensure your fire plan is ready. The rain should be helping.

Our thoughts are with the crews battling the blaze, and we hope it is fully under control before the weather heats up over Christmas and Boxing Day.

Please follow the Vic emergency app for updates.
