Firefighters were called to tackle the flames at Langley Bottom Farm yesterday
Straw fuelled a fire which spread across five acres of a field yesterday.
Firefighters were called to tackle the flames at Langley Bottom Farm, in Langley Vale, at 2.30pm.
A Leatherhead firefighter said the cause was not yet known but a combine harvester was being used at the time of the fire.
He said: "We stopped the fire before it got to the trees but it was certainly heading towards the trees."
