Dist:0.2km<br/>Over the past two months, there have been ten fires raised on Talbot Heath, causing long-term damage and destruction to vegetation and rare wildlife. Initial culprits were thought to be children; later evidence points to adults. This is the scene of the third fire; the white patches are burnt-out badger setts. St. Aldhelm's School is to the right. For an aerial picture of partial damage, see http://www.2crfm.co.uk/article.asp?id=1321119
