A resident burning rubbish outside was given words of advice by firefighters after causing a thick cloud of smoke.

Neighbours in Pen-y-Wern, Bangor, Gwynedd, were asked to close their windows and doors on Saturday night, after a warning went out on social media.

North Wales Fire and Rescue Service said there was a "controlled burn" of a large amount of household waste in the open.

A crew attended and put out the fire.
