A REPORT of a fire in Stoke Row on Monday turned out be a private bonfire.
A villager had called Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service at 10.30pm warning that they had seen a blaze with the potential to get out of hand.
They said that they were worried as there was just a hosepipe to bring it under control.
A spokesman for the service said no one attended the scene but safety advice was provided.
