A caravan left in a country lane which was set on fire will be removed by the local council.
Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service said firefighters were called to Redhill Lane near Shifnal at 12:43 BST on Sunday to put the blaze out.
John Madden, 61, said he first saw the caravan in the lane and it appeared to have been abandoned.
"I couldn't believe it," he said, "I've often seen stuff dumped there but nothing that big before."
Mr Madden added: "The signs say they are monitoring it for fly-tipping but obviously not very closely if a whole caravan can be taken down there."
Shropshire Council said the caravan would be removed in the next few days.
