TEN fire crews have been battling a severe fire at a Kingswinford household recycling unit.

West Midlands Fire Service was called to the blaze in Oak Lane at 8.32pm last night.

Fire fighters worked alongside the key holder to try and create a fire break.

The blaze came just hours after a huge blaze at a recycling plant in Lye.

The earlier fire occurred at Overton Recycling Plant in Rufford Street when 30 tonnes of recycling waste was set on fire.
