FIREFIGHTERS from 22 central Victorian brigades battled a 20-hectare grassfire on Morgans Road at Barfold on Australia Day afternoon.<\/p>\n

A CFA spokesperson said the blaze stemmed from a burn off.<\/p>\n

Thirty ground units, two helicopters and a bird dog fire spotting plane were called to the scene after the fire started at about 1.25pm.<\/p>\n

At one stage a Watch and Act notification was issued, but the fire was under control by 6.30pm.<\/p>\n

The aircraft continued to monitor hot spots for several hours with the bird dog remaining until 11pm.<\/p>\n

Castlemaine and Metcalfe fire brigade crews stayed on site overnight and other local crews returned in the morning to continue blacking out over the next day.<\/p>\n
