    West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service found the barbecue on Ilkley Moor on Thursday. The people responsible had left the scene when fire crews arrived.

    Last month a fire on Marsden Moor burned for three days and caused "hundreds of thousands of pounds" of damage.

    District Commander Benjy Bush, said: “It’s frustrating to see that, just weeks after the devastating fire on Marsden Moor, just yesterday we were called to a barbecue on Ilkley Moor.

    “Thankfully, this didn’t result in a larger fire occurring, but it so easily could have.

    "There is simply no safe way to have a barbecue on moorland and the consequences could be devastating."

    A year-round Public Spaces Protection Order bans bonfires, fireworks and barbecues on moorland across West Yorkshire, with breaches liable to face a fine of up to £2,000.

    The service will be followed by a burial at a nearby cemetery, with a local florist donating flowers.
