On Wednesday, 11 November, units from Purcellville, Round Hill, Loudoun Heights, Leesburg, Philomont, Hamilton, Mt. Weather, and Lovettsville responded to a barn fire on Hillsboro Road, just outside the Purcellville town limits. When units arrived on the scene, the barn was fully engulfed and reported as a working fire. Units worked together to establish water supply as this was a non-hydrant area. With multiple handlines and Tower 602, the fire was extinguished with only one injury reported. The call went out at 1142 and the last unit returned to service at 1845. The fire is currently under investigation by the Fire Marshall’s office. All units did a thorough and professional job.
